Food Network film crews taped there Tuesday, July 20th, after having recieved so many fan recommendations. One can only assume that Guy Fieri's schedule does not allow him to travel to every likely restaurant in every shoot pod.

The New York Times recently interviewed the creators of NBC's Minute to Win It show, writing, "Typically when television creators want to gather ideas, they huddle in a writers’ room or maybe head out to a long expense-account lunch. When the creators of “Minute to Win It” need inspiration, they head to Target or a hardware store."
To date, the summer episodes have been well received by viewers, averaging 6.5 million in its Wednesday night slot, against "Big Brother" and "So You Think You Can Dance."
Heath Luman, one of the supervising producers feels one of the factors leading to the show's popularity is, "you can literally go to your cabinet, grab the supplies and play the games with your family during the commercial break."
The Times' article continued, "that NBC can promote the homemade games as an inexpensive form of family entertainment in a difficult economy is another plus, the producers say."
Craig Plestis, an executive producer, said the game makers come into work with bags of household items and stock them on shelves labeled as different rooms of a house. As the show was being developed, “it was like coming into work to a toy factory,” Mr. Plestis said.
By now the producers have pitched roughly 1,000 games. About 150 have made it onto the show.
