Well, and he wouldn't have had that tv show if he'd been judged on food alone. He had that Johnny Garlic's place since 1996 (according to their site, at least) and they have a pretty standardly obnoxious menu with no road food trappings at all.

I guess that is what I didn't buy about the argument that he's betraying what made him popular or his roots -- he co-owns three or four restaurants already and the Times Square one is about the same.

I mean, I have a friend who has a tenderloin sandwich blog, and has visited something like a hundred places serving tenderloins in his state alone. Fieri doesn't do that

your friend is a martyr, truly

don't know why that blog post has to take a passing swipe at Vandaag (now closed). It was a good place, with a different sort of food than you normally get in NY (which is hard to do). I guess it's more a passing swipe at sifton?

I like to think he's more of a prophet, really, who had to drive a shitload for his job. xp

Was VanDaag Dutch?

a bit dutch, a bit generally scandinavian, a bit generally weird.

Mozzarella i Fieri (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 20 November 2012 15:29 (eleven years ago) link

What did he do on that food network show that got him his job, anyway?

not sure if this is a serious question or rhetorical but Next Food Network Star (the competition show he won) is a mix of Top Chef style cooking challenges and on-camera stuff

dmr, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 18:26 (eleven years ago) link

yeah, pretty rhetorical, but his work in the cooking challenges wasn't at all road food-inspired iirc

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 19:04 (eleven years ago) link

I watched the show that year but don't really remember anything about it other than that Guy won

dmr, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 19:32 (eleven years ago) link

I think I mostly watched another season of it and the show was absolutely horrible

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 19:50 (eleven years ago) link

I could not deal with that show, because the most insufferable people were the ones likeliest to last the longest.

I could not deal with that show this earth, because the most insufferable people were the ones likeliest to last the longest.

Years later, found out 90% of the shit on their walls was fake (or just didn't belong to who they said it did).

It looks like it is made up of pus and decaying roaches.

Why is it spicy? I mean, I'm all about chocolate and chili but this isn't like a flourless Mexican chocolate and ancho chili torte. It's a fucking marshmallow and chocolate chip pizza.

an eagle named "small government" (call all destroyer), Wednesday, 2 January 2013 21:31 (eleven years ago) link

I'm looking at the picture on the box and still wondering why anyone thought, yeah, this could be pretty good

mh, Wednesday, 2 January 2013 21:32 (eleven years ago) link

Also the box doesn't say it's spicy, and I think that Guy Fieri has a duty to warn potential buyers. Therefore, I will represent smorelover, veryupsetmom, Noellesmommy, and clubmember59 in a class action lawsuit for culinary negligence.

Tome Cruise (Matt P), Wednesday, 2 January 2013 21:34 (eleven years ago) link

Spice on smores is an inherently sick and twisted concept.

this will surprise many (Nicole), Wednesday, 2 January 2013 21:35 (eleven years ago) link

Nobody says what kind of spice, so I'm imagining it to be some hot curry powder.

carl agatha, Wednesday, 2 January 2013 21:36 (eleven years ago) link

ohhh no. oh no no no.
