Triple D Nation

This trip, Guy Fieri's checkin' in with some of the funkiest Flavortown tastemakers. First, a wicked-good waffle spot in Syracuse, N.Y., moved to a bigger downtown location, still crankin' the tunes and plating new knockouts like the-bomb bulgogi and real-deal Reuben waffles. Next, an Allston, Mass., joint is still bringing mega Mexican flavors to New England with top-shelf seafood and gourmet mushroom asada on scratch-made tortillas. And in Minneapolis, the home of the "Blucy" expanded to two brick-and-mortars, stuffin' their signature patties with ghost pepper cheese, then topping tots with killer queso and mojo pork.

This trip, Guy Fieri's catchin' up with some top Italian, mega Mexican and verifiable vegan eateries! A mom-and-pop taco spot in Phoenix isn't slowing down anytime soon, now at multiple locations and still serving a taste of Chihuahua with lights-out lengua and beefed-up gorditas. Then, in Boston, real-deal Italian is going strong, plating craveable faves like a marinated steak tip sandwich and next-level eggplant parm. Plus, a not-your-typical butcher is bringing even more "meatless" to the Minneapolis masses, puttin' their plant-based stamp on a huli-huli rib panini and the-bomb bacon brat.
