You can see Guy driving a dark blue '66 Mustang in the first season, www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCuhtoxqKXk, at The Beacon Drive-in, in South Carolina and also here, www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSaIU1f5TNw, at The Bayway Diner in Linden, NJ. So who wins the bet? :)"
Ray's reply: ")-: My wife wins the bet. I have watched (thought I did) every episode and I could have sworn (falsely) that he only drove the Camaro. Oh well, my wife needs to win sometimes (actually, she wins too often). Thank you very much for your quick response! Kind regards, Ray"
Ray and his wife have inspired me to do a bit of further research, listing all the cars that have appeared on the show. Certainly the '67 Camaro and the 'Stang, but Guy's Shelby Cobra has also made a cameo on the show, and of course there was the "Woody" in the Hawaii episodes. We'll do further research and see what we can come up with. Thanks Ray!

Irene, Thunder Bay, Ontario Canada wrote: "I was watching an episode of DDD and Guy and another fellow were making chicken and dumplings. The dumplings were a bit different. The dumplings were made like a biscuit, rolled thin, cut into squares with lots of flour on them and then dropped into the simmering broth the chicken was cooked in. This was not the Nob Hill Episode (I looked at the recipe and did not even seem close). Could you track down the dumpling recipe for me or send me in the right direction to get it. thank you, Irene"Our answer: "Hi Irene! Oh ... I think I may know the one you're thinking of. I'm afraid that one was Earl's Drive-in in Chaffee, NY? If so, no recipe, and no Youtube video that I've found (yet) of that episode.
"However, Dish in North Carolina was also featured for their chicken and dumplings. Would you care to check out this video and see if it was the episode you saw? Let us know! In the mean time, will do a bit more research to see what I can turn up. :)"
Irene's reply: "Thank you for you prompt response. I took a look at this video and the recipe looks similiar to Earls Drive-In, so I will go from there. I now know what they are called 'Southern Biscuits' and will search out a recipe I like on the web. You have been a great help, thanks again."

Recently he bought a hand held citrus press and wouldn't you know it broke after a few uses! So today we were looking at Guy make some Tailgate Appetizers and I saw the PERFECT gift for my boyfriend -- the citrus press used by Guy. Please help me be a good Santa and find out where I can purchase one. Thanks so much!"Our answer: "Hello Sue! I hope I can help. :) Guy uses citrus squeezers by Amco on Guy's Big Bite. You can click here to find them on the Food Network's online store. But if you Google "citrus squeezer" there a ton of options from several online stores. Guy uses the enameled heavy cast aluminum ones (color coded, green is small, yellow is medium and orange is large). I've also heard good reviews about Oxo's Good Grips citrus squeezer. Prices range from $10 - $20 each.
"Follow this link, or visit www.Amazon.com, search the "Home, Garden & Pets" Department and type in "citrus squeezer" into the search box. Plenty there for you to look through. Or search at your own favorite online store or local kitchen gadget store. Let us know what you find! And thanks for writing in."

It is my FAVORITE program & it wasn't on till midnight ET. Thanks so much, Diane"Our answer: "The Food Network has changed their entire prime time schedule this week. The pro: a bunch of episodes of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives are playing all week. The con: the schedule is all screwy. On 12/13, DDD was on for two hours, starting at 8:00 p.m. ET. So if you tuned in at 10, you just missed 'em! Argh! I know. :) But they'll repeat.
"Visit this page, Prime Time Guy All Week on Food Network, for all of the week's Guy Fieri programming. And starting on Monday, 12/20, it appears that Diners, Drive-ins and Dives will be back to its regular schedule, Mondays at 10, Fridays at 9 and Sundays at 3.
"You may also be interested in this page, More on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, or in my Fans of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives blog, where I keep track of all the episode air dates and times. Hope that helps!"
