Just last month, Guy Fieri and Co. were hitting some hotspots around Charlotte, tasting some of the Queen City's finest treats for the Food Network show "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives." There are at least two episodes that will feature Charlotte restaurants, the first of which is set to air on May 1 at 10 p.m.
Driving Through Charlotte
This trip, Guy Fieri's checkin' out high octane joints in Charlotte, N.C., with NASCAR driver Clint Bowyer. First, the relocated Triple-D alum dishing out dynamite burgers and a unique spin on shrimp. Then, the go-kart track serving revved-up sandwiches like steak with fig preserves and smoking hot chicken. And parked at the Charlotte Speedway, the funky food truck firing up tasty flavors like chana masala tacos and buffalo cauliflower sliders.
The following episode also includes Charlotte, but an air date has not been announced yet.
Indulgent Dishes
This trip, Guy Fieri's indulging himself in righteous, rich recipes. In Charlotte, N.C., the crazy seafood spot reeling in off-the-hook gumbo and a spicy mahi mahi specialty. Across town, the mother-daughter team serving up savory lamb ragout and a decadent ice cream sandwich. And in Los Angeles, the Korean-German combo firing up drunken chicken and a killer burger.
