Robert is preparing a thrilling meal for 250 roller coaster enthusiasts at one of the country's top locations for thrill seekers: Six Flag's Great America! Robert is given just 9hrs to create a menu that takes standard amusement park classics like hot dogs & funnel cake and put as many twists and turns on them as the Six Flags coasters themselves. Robert soon finds out that there is one special twist to this mission that will make this challenge even more difficult- no grocery stores! Hank Salemi, the president of Six Flags Great America tells Robert that he will be doing ALL of his shopping at restaurants and stands within the park! With over a mile of ground to cover and without the luxury of a real grocery store Robert finds himself on a ride he wishes he could get off of. Robert is quick to realize that to really make this food as thrilling as these guests expect he's going to have to find a way to sneak some key ingredients into the park and into his menu otherwise this mission may truly be....Dinner: Impossible!

For GGG's 3rd annual April Fools' special in honor of legendary chef and prankster Carl "The Cuban" Ruiz, Guy Fieri has invited a bunch of Carl's all-star friends to Flavortown Market for a night of epic food and twisted pranks. The four chefs get one hour to prepare a spicy appetizer and an even spicier entree that will make judges sweat their pants off! Guy gives the chefs a generous budget to make their meals but then forces them to bid for the privilege to shop their favorite aisle. The chef who survives Guy's pranks and cooks the best food gets the last laugh -- their name engraved on the April Fools' winner plaque and the chance to win up to $20,000! Plus, someone is getting dunked -- literally -- in the most outrageous April Fools' twist ever.
Giddy up and tally ho! Host Noah Cappe is off to Rodeo Austin, one of Texas' premiere rodeo events! The vendors have to feed hundreds of thousands of hungry fairgoers, and their delectable midway meals do not disappoint. Noah stars the day off right with the Bacon Breakfast Fries before digging into the Surf and Turf-tato -- a steak and seafood loaded baked potato -- an Etouffee Parfait that layers sumptuous Cajun delights, and the Popcorn Frankendog -- a classic corn dog with an amped up popcorn-coated batter. Later, Noah heads to California for a pair of wildly different events! First up, the bright Balboa Park December Nights Festival in San Diego features Kenyan-inspired Rafikiz Fries and perfectly hued Pink Lady Dumplings. Then in Cathedral City, Noah hits up the Taste of Jalisco, a Mexican-inspired festival, where he samples the Sweet Potato Tornado -- a modern carnival classic.
