xposting homemade pizza dough is sooooooo much better than store dough. But homemade pizza sauce ... meh. Not worth the effort for the slight results.

i disagree, i made my own dough for a couple of years and the TJs dough is just as good if not better then what i made. maybe i just suck though.

This is one of my go-to pizza doughs, pretty versatile:

ciderpress, Monday, 19 November 2012 22:26 (eleven years ago) link

I will make my donkey sauce with real donkeys, if it is legal.

THAT IS ONE BIG PIZZA (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Monday, 19 November 2012 22:34 (eleven years ago) link

The sin of his restaurant seems to be making food that lacks the love the spots he celebrates cooks into its food, from scratch, every day.

a man whose brand was built on his unreserved praise for food and people deserving of that praise, and who in entering the arena himself revealed a hollowness that threatens to undermine everything he’s done

that's a great blog post imo. i don't have quite as much love for triple-d as that guy does but he captures what's great about the show when it's at its best.

call all destroyer, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 03:15 (eleven years ago) link

i think the next step of that critique is the difference between guy as a sort of contemporary food anthropologist who's had 20 different versions of red-eye gravy and can tell you why this most recent one is great, and guy as a "chef" (to the extent that he even is one) with a demonstrable lack of taste when it comes to what his own kitchens produce.

i need to make more pizzas

well if it isn't old 11 cameras simon (gbx), Tuesday, 20 November 2012 03:27 (eleven years ago) link

It's bullshit, Fieri won a food network show and was plopped into DD&D as a vehicle. As the citypages article mentioned earlier mentioned, the show existed before him, it just needed a personality. Fieri's other, pre existing restaurants are bullshit. He might relate well to the food sometimes, but he can't even handle if the owners are gay or whatever.

Giving him credit for on-air banter and relatability to the common man is nice, but finding dive food relatable isn't a unique talent, and not what he brought to it.

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 03:59 (eleven years ago) link

yup

pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:01 (eleven years ago) link

it's not "what he brought to it" but it's "what he ostensibly stood for," there is a difference

call all destroyer, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:01 (eleven years ago) link

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, and members of the production team are looking at websites, travel guides, and newspapers to find these places. His job is to show up, act like the garlic mafioso dipshit, and hope the team was right and that he can choke down whatever he's served.

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

Why is there the assumption road food is his gig? What did he do on that food network show that got him his job, anyway?

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:05 (eleven years ago) link

xpost Eh, that pretty much goes for every travel food show.

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:06 (eleven years ago) link

well i don't think anyone is saying that he originated this concept but it is what his appeal is based on, i don't think it's incorrect to say that his restaurant is a betrayal of his appeal.

call all destroyer, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:08 (eleven years ago) link

Is that why he hosts a NBC game show, diner food?

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:09 (eleven years ago) link

i mean you can do a rockist critique of guy fieri all you want, i think all that post was saying is that we wouldn't all be talking about this if the food in his restaurant was half as good as the stuff that appears on his tv show.

call all destroyer, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:10 (eleven years ago) link

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.

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:13 (eleven years ago) link

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.

mh, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:17 (eleven years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:27 (eleven years ago) link

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?

s.clover, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 04:29 (eleven years ago) link

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

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
