Typically we see 7 locations in a metro area, shot between Sunday and Thursday in one week; this schedule may be extended through Monday. We love tips, pictures and stories! If you see Guy Fieri and/or the Triple D camera crews in Indy, just comment below.

Diners, Drive-ins and Dives hasn't been to The Hoosier State in years. The first and only two stops to date were in the first season; the South Side Soda Shop in Goshen and the Triple XXX Family Restaurant in West Lafayette were featured.

As far as we can tell, the next stop on the Triple D tour will be in Denver, Colorado. Lauer Krauts in Brighton is rumored to be one of their stops and Sam's No. 3; more information on that and more in an upcoming post.

Guido's Tailgate Greats (GI0901H)

Guy's Big Bite - Guido's Tailgate Greats - Aired 10/17/10

Guy Fieri prepares a stadium-sized spread for gametime fans. His friend Aarti Sequeira lends an extra hand as Guy makes Stuffed Pupusas, filled with black beans, chorizo and cheese; crunchy Curtido Slaw is a traditional and tangy counterpoint. Round two is all about wings, and Ain't No Thing Butta Chicken Wing does it right with a spice rub and a homemade garlic- jalapeno hot sauce. Finally, a fresh and tangy Orange Sling cuts the heat and quenches your thirst

This morning, just a quick note about a few recent and upcoming events with Guy Fieri.

We received a note from Brad, of Eatnlisten.com, who was at the New York City Wine and Food Festival, 2010:

Yes I did have a great time! It was an amazing (and gutbusting..) experience from beginning to end. ... Just as I was leaving SWEET Saturday night Guy arrived and I caught a quick pic of him posing with some of the many fans who about mobbed him. It was great to see him and I hope to meet him again another time.

Chef Andy Mueller, owner and head chef of two Door County restaurants, was chosen to represent Green Bay Packers fans in a cooking challenge show called "Tailgate Warriors" featuring Guy Fieri, which debuts October 20, 2010 on Food Network.

On meeting and working with Guy Fieri, "He's on the level of rock star status," he said, describing how a crowd of people cheered and tried to touch Fieri as he emerged from his car. "But he's a real person, a funny guy. He loves talking to people, he loves food, he loves the history of the Packers — he talked with Andy (Gehring) about how important the Packers are to football."
