Product Description

Food Network star Guy Fieri takes you on a tour of America's most colorful diners, drive-ins, and dives in this tie-in to his enormously popular television show, complete with recipes, photos, and memorabilia.

Packed with Guy's iconic personality, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives follows his hot-rod trips around the country, mapping out the best places most of us have never heard of. From digging in at legendary burger joint the Squeeze Inn in Sacramento, California, baking Peanut Pie from Virginia Diner in Wakefield, Virginia, or kicking back with Pete's "Rubbed and Almost Fried" Turkey Sandwich from Panini Pete's in Fairhope, Alabama, Guy showcases the amazing personalities, fascinating stories, and outrageously good food offered by these American treasures.

5 out of 5 stars Any general lending collection strong in American culture and culinary history needs this   January 9, 2009
Part lively travelogue and part cookbook, Guy Fieri's culinary history celebrates America's most colorful diners and dives - and accompanies his popular TV show. Recipes blend with black and white photos and memorabilia for a survey packed with fun stories and fine dishes, bringing the Food Network star's experiences and colorful observations to life. Any general lending collection strong in American culture and culinary history needs this.



5 out of 5 stars My Father loves this book   January 8, 2009
I bought this book for my Father for a Christmas present. He travels in his motorhome and has mentioned he would love to stop at some of the diners that were on the show. So I bought him the book and a large atlas and marked the diners locations on the map so now he knows in advance if he will be traveling near one of the diners and can plan his visits ahead of time.


4 out of 5 stars Good buy   January 8, 2009
This is a good book if you love Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and really want to try the recipes you see on television. It also has great stories behind the places Guy visits.


4 out of 5 stars Love it   January 7, 2009
I bought this for my husband for Christmas. He loves it and has already made one of the recipes. YUMMY!!


5 out of 5 stars Fun and Delicious   January 7, 2009
I love watching the show, and having the book full of recipes gives my wife and I a chance to try some of these tasty dishes at home. I hope Guy comes out with another book to review the other restaurants he didn't cover in this book.
