Reviews for Diners, Drive-ins and Dives
7 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5added several spots to visit and recipes to try, fun to read about all those good-sounding-bad-for-you foods!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Not a great cookbook, since the recipes are designed for large quantities (mostly) from restaurants, and are sometimes incomplete, but its a great companion to the show, and a tribute to small, independent American restaurants.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love this guy's show on the Food Network. He finds little, independently owned eateries across the country and revels in the food these places are serving. Don't look for vegan health food here. We're talking about peanut pir, "Rubbed & Almost Fried" turkey sanwich and "The Chorizo Garbage Plate" here. If this book doesn't make you want to jump into your car, hit the road & start eating, nothing will.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5If you buy this for recipes, you'll likely be disappointed. However, it is a wonderful read and great background if you are a fan of the show. I now have a list of places to target and I'm ready to jump in the car and go!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book worth the price of purchase simply for the description of the diners, drive-ins, and dives. Yes, I really would have liked more recipes, and I really would have liked a couple of pages on every one of the places that were on the show even if they didn’t get a recipes from them, but it did come with the Cap’n Crunch French Toast recipe and it does have Al’s Diner (which is just down the street from where I work) and Psycho Susie’s, which is close to home. My siblings have been telling me about this place called Chino Bandido for years and here it is!We just LOVE Guy Fieri, he has great energy and isn’t afraid of taking a big bite and getting food al over. And it looks like he is having fun!
