This trip, Guy Fieri's filling up on some serious soup. In Baltimore, the authentic Irish pub serving up seafood gumbo and a twist on traditional corned beef and cabbage. In Eugene, Ore., the joint dishing out 80 different kinds of soup, from a Middle Eastern take on lamb to Peruvian pork and quinoa. And in Cincinnati, the Vietnamese spot cranking out phenomenal pho and a banh mi sandwich turned on its head.
Guy Fieri tries out favorites from around the corner and around the globe. In Chicago, a Peruvian joint serving classic lomo saltado (sauteed rib eye with French fries mixed right in) and beef heart; in Oklahoma City, a local institution where the bread's baked fresh daily and the schnitzel's done like back in Germany; and in South Buffalo, N.Y., a pub making the home town favorite, a sandwich called "beef on weck."
