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

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?

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.

hey guys it took a long time to finish this thread in between work, have had this tab open for over a week
Years later, found out 90% of the shit on their walls was fake (or just didn't belong to who they said it did).

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.

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.

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.
