This week in Boise, Idaho, Guy Fieri granted a little girl's Christmas wish: to cook with him on stage.

According to Boise's Fox 12, "Natalie Glabe isn't your typical seven year old.She wants to be a chef when she grows up, just like Guy." So when the Road Show pulled into town, Guy Fieri had to check with Santa,

"Hey, Santa, Guy Fieri here. So, do you mind if I give her the Christmas gift early? Her name is Natalie. Natalie Glabe. Uh huh. Yes? Really? Ok," said Fieri.

The two worked together on the stage (before the show) and made a Mexican Torta. And Guy gave her one more special gift, "From Guy to Chef Natalie," he says as he hands her a pair of his tongs, autographed by her hero.

A Christmas this little girl will never forget. Click here to read the full story.
