Recently I added a new page to this blog, Have a Question? At the end of each month, I'll share what fans are asking and what answers I could find for them. [Some answers are edited for brevity. ~D]
Bernie from Illinois wrote, "I want to be able to type in the name of a city and see if Guy has been there and where he reviewed. Currently I am in Atlantic City, but would like a search option on the website to do this for anywhere."
Our answer: We have three suggestions for you. One is www.tvfoodmaps.com and another is Food Network Local. Or you can check out our Triple D map! We think they're all excellent resources and easy to use. Let us know what you think! And best of luck in your restaurant searching!
-----------------------------------------------------
Donna asked, "How many episodes has he shot in the total shows?"
Our answer: Hmm, let's see! I don't have exact numbers, but I do have some rather good, round estimates:
Guy's Big Bite - 150. Diners, Drive-ins and Dives - 150. Minute to Win It - 45. Tailgate Warriors - 5. Ultimate Recipe Showdown - 18. Other TV specials and guest spots - 30, give or take.
-----------------------------------------------------
Virginia of Whidbey Island wrote, "I recently purchased your latest cookbook and in it you mention that you will miss Morgan. I'm wondering......where did she go? We so love your family and we were concerned. Thank you."
Our answer: The sad news is that Morgan passed away in February of this year. She and Guy were very close, and it was a heart-breaking time for the entire family. Guy now has a memorial tattoo on his forearm, the "Birth of Venus" image that you see on the dedication page of his cookbook.
-----------------------------------------------------
Leon from Corona asked, "how can i go to a taping of guys big bite?"
Our answer: Unfortunately Guy's Big Bite is a closed set. They're taping new episodes in Guy's backyard at his home in Santa Rosa, CA. We'll be updating this page, Upcoming Events soon, with all of Guy's public events. Hope you can catch him at one!
-----------------------------------------------------
Chuck from Frisco wrote, "Curious to know what cooktop is used on the show? Thanks fot the info, GREAT show!!"
Our answer: Guy uses a Viking Range at home and on Guy's Big Bite.

Fan questions, Mid-June 2011
Recently I added a new page to this blog, Have a Question? At the end of each month (and sometimes part-way thru!), I'll share what fans are asking and what answers I could find for them. [Some answers are edited for brevity. ~D]
Connye from Campbell asked, "I would love to know exactly what model of sunglasses and (if in fact they are Gatorz) style, color, etc. that Guy Fieri is wearing on the cover of the Costco Connection June 2011 magazine, Vol. 26, Number 6. They appear to be copper colored, and look like Gatorz, however I searched high and low for them and could not find them online. Guy is wearing these sunglasses while standing at the grill cooking his Bloody Mary Flank Steak smiling and pointing during his photoshoot coverage of Celebrity chefs serving up their favorite summer recipes (page 28). Would love to know where to buy Guy's sunglasses-they are so cool! Thanks!"
Our answer: We know the ones - Guy Fieri featured in Costco Connection. Turns out, Gatorz custom designed those sunglasses for Guy Fieri, and they are not available for purchase. Check out these similar ones frames, or Guy Fieri's signature Gatorz shades.
----------------------------------------------------
Michele from Castle Rock wrote, "I bought the Costco tri tip.... I do not see the cooking instructions, help?"
Our answer: here are some suggestions for Tri-tip from Guy Fieri.
Santa Maria Tri-Tip - recipe
Spicy Tangerine Beef - recipe
Johnny Garlic's Grilled Peppered Steak with Cabernet Balsamic Sauce - recipe
Best of luck! And let us know how it goes
----------------------------------------------------
Karen, 35 year old Hodgkin's Lymphoma Survivor from Mesa wrote, "Guy: I attended your ROCKIN' Food tour in Mesa, AZ. It was awesome! I wanted to express to you the sadness I felt when you told us about the loss of your sister. I have recently been fighting my own battle against cancer, and your story touched me."
Our reply: Thank you for your kind words. Keep up the good fight!
----------------------------------------------------
Ginger from Chico asked, "What pasta recipe did Guy make when he was a contestant on Next Food Network Star? Bob Tushman said he liked it so much that he couldnt stop thinking about it. Would Guy share that recipe with me? I would like to try it!
Love your shows, Johnny Garlics (Roseville) and books Guy! You've got such an awesome personality, also love that you're a family guy."
Our answer: Guy Fieri's signature dish was Cajun Chicken Alfredo. Click here for the recipe! He made it on one of the first episodes of Guy's Big Bite in 2007, Kickin' Cajun Alfredo (GI0102), and it used to be (maybe still is?) on Johnny Garlic's menu. :)
----------------------------------------------------
Libbie from Charlotte asked, "How do the places featured on DDD get chosen? Surely there is a pre-production team that eats there first and plays canary? Just curious. It always looks like Guy just shows up and finds all this fabulous food. What's the real process?"
Our answer: Check out Guy's book, "More Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" on HarperCollins.com. Just below the picture of the book, click on "Read Now"
Scroll through to Page 6, where the executive producer, David Page, writes about "What It Takes to Pull off Triple D" and "How We Find the Funky." I think you'll be surprised how much work it takes!
Her reply: Thanks for the quick response Dora! DDD is one of the most authentically entertaining and tummy-rumbling shows I've ever seen. Guy is livin' my dream, traveling, eating, cooking and laughing a lot. No, my dream would be to work with the team. No my dream would be to get past chemo (soon!) and not ever have cancer again. But the silver lining of being home and recovering is my new obsession with the Food Network and DDD. Really ironic that I'm so obsessed with the Food Network since I have no appetite, but I think Guy and his DDD show have given me hope that I will, once again, eat with abandon!
Please let him know he has made one woman in Charlotte NC living to be hungry again and if he comes back [to Charlotte], it will be my good luck and pleasure to tell him personally if there's any chance.
----------------------------------------------------
Mandy from Finley asked, "Do you ever plan on doing a show from North Dakota? I live your show and would love to see you do a show from mt home state."
Our answer: Right now, future tapings of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives episodes is on hold, pending a lawsuit between the executive producer (Page Productions) and the Food Network. Until the issue is resolved, no research is being done for new states and locations.
We'll post more on Fans of Guy Fieri when we know more! Til then, hang tight.

Guido's Great Grillin' Grub (GI1005H)
Guy's Big Bite - Guido's Great Grillin' Grub - Aired 6/5/11
Guy Fieri fires up the grill for his Santa Maria Tri-Tip, a hefty piece of prime beef, generously seasoned and seared on the hot grates ‘til perfectly tender and juicy. Next is Guy's Smokin’ Potato Salad, with grilled Yukon golds dusted in smoked paprika and tossed with celery, red onion and capers in a creamy mustard dressing. Last but not least, Infineon Raceway Baked Beans are an epic recipe with 3 types of beans and applewood smoked bacon simmered in a sweet-spicy barbeque sauce. This is grilling Big Bite style!
