Exact dates and times for filming the show are estimates at best. No promises, ok? Haha. As Guy Fieri explained in a recent interview (listen), the show gets its best footage when the restaurant is not overcrowded, just with the restaurant's regular customers and operating in a natural, organic way. It is likely that the restaurants may be closed when Guy Fieri is there, filming the segments in the kitchens.

Expect these JAX and SSI episodes to air on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives on the Food Network any time from early May through the summer months of 2010.

And speaking of Florida, the South Beach Wine & Food Festival is gearing up. The Online Auction started January 25 and ends March 8, 2010. Click here to see what's up for auction.

I thought that the Private Cooking Class & Gourmet Lunch in Food Network Kitchens sounded like a lot of fun, and the Create your own burger that will be featured at Spike's Good Stuff Eatery too.

The South Beach Wine & Food Festival runs February 25 - 28, 2010. Guy Fieri's major event is the closing party, Guy’s Luna En Fuego Party co-presented by Gnarly Head Wines and Miami New Times (info), set for Sunday, February 28 at 6:30 p.m., now Sold Out.

Guy Fieri is also set to make appearances at South Beach Diet presents Fun & Fit as a Family featuring Kellogg's Kidz Kitchen, scheduled on both Saturday (info) and Sunday (info), February 27 and 28, 2010.

Guy Fieri's scheduled events are listed here. For full information on the SoBe Wine & Food Festival, click here.
