This trip, Guy Fieri's crossing the states to get some south of the border flavor. From Florida to California, Southwest to Midwest, he's diving into everything from tacos, tamales and tortas to al pastor and pozole. Plus, fiery burritos, seafood sensations, puff-tastic tortillas, and regional specialties straight out of the Yucatan. So, get ready to max out on Mexican in this flavor fiesta.
This trip, Guy's pulling up for a different kind of fast food. In Honolulu, a 48-year-old drive-in where burgers and dogs come with rice and macaroni salad. In Duluth, Minn., a deli on the north shore of Lake Superior where you can grab fresh smoked fish, for here or to go. And all over Los Angeles, a taco truck doing Chinese-Mexican fusion.
America's boardwalks are calling out to Curtis Stone and he heads to Venice Beach, Calif., Virginia Beach, Va., and Key West, Fla., to find the most delicious boardwalk bites. Whether it's a deep-fried hot dog wrapped in bacon, a crispy soft-shelled crab sandwich or melt-in-your-mouth chicken tacos, these dishes and more will have you wishing for a boardwalk vacation!
Molly Yeh makes a delicious buffet spread for her sister-in-law's baby shower. The menu includes "Walking" Fish Tacos with Crunchy Cabbage Slaw and Cilantro Dressing, Pigs in a Blanket with Harissa Ketchup and Honey Mustard and her signature meatless Meatball Sliders with a Twist. Molly's Baked Donuts with Rhubarb, Blood Orange and Blueberry glazes then take center stage on the dessert table.
Getting together for the 'big game' is an American tradition, but it's also the perfect time to serve up some hearty Mexican food.

With more and more people asking Rachael Ray for gluten-free recipes, she's come up with three meals that don't sacrifice a thing in terms of flavor. First out of the bag: Sweet 'n' Spicy Shrimp Lettuce Tacos, then it's Zucchini Pappardelle With Pesto and Eggplant Alla Norma. Last but not least, Poblano Posole, a classic Mexican stew served with radishes, avocado and scallions.
Though Mexico is known for its tacos, Marcela shows viewers the popular Mexican Milanese Sandwiches made with ciabatta rolls (bolillos) and stuffed with thinly pounded chicken breast that has been breaded and fried. Accompanying the street-inspired menu are Creamy Corn Cups with mix-and-match toppings like chile powder, sour crème, lime juice, and shredded cheese and Sweet Cinnamon Flavored Oatmeal Drinks.
Guy Fieri whips up Heirloom Tomato Tacos, piled into crisp romaine leaves, and topped with crumbled gorgonzola, peppery microgreens, and homemade Crostini Croutons. For Guy's Carbonara Classica, he tosses bucatini pasta in a silky egg and parmesan sauce with peas, pancetta, and black pepper. And for dessert, Orange and Olive Oil Cake is tender and insanely moist with a zesty orange glaze soaking down through every bite.
