    #1 - Triple D Nation: Fried, Baked, Smashed and Stuffed

    S54:E1

    This trip, Guy Fieri's checking in with some Flavortown faves crankin' out new knockouts! A Triple-D OG Chicago institution is celebrating over 100 years, still slingin' their signature thin crust pies and firing up fried chicken and a mighty mostaccioli. In Richfield, Minn., a real-deal Mexican joint is busier than ever, servin' a righteous relleno and prime-time pork taco. And a vegetarian diner in Cambridge, Mass., has really taken off, dishing out a meat-free spin on smash burgers, plus lip-smackin' jackfruit Cubanos.

Then, a 24-hour vintage diner in downtown Chicago is busier than ever, keeping their loyal patrons and reeling in new ones with lights-out liver and onions, plus scratch-made meatloaf. And a Duluth smokehouse increased their space and menu offerings, plating zesty pepper porchetta and a legit lamb sammie with a curry kick.

A Calgary, Alberta, joint is conjuring a taste of the South, serving A-list brisket, righteous ribs, and prime-time potato skins. And a pizza spot in Reno, Nev., is dishin' it out Detroit-style, firing up fresh focaccia with finger-lickin' chicken, lights-out lamb, and more.
