<p>Does anyone love this show like DH and I do? (Our dream trip has always been to drive back roads across the country, and we always wonder how we could stumble upon places like that along the way.)</p>
<p>Has anyone actually GONE to any of the places on DDD? Was it as good as it was made out to be on the show?</p>
<p>Note to self, do not watch when very hungry…</p>
<p>Have you ever read Roadfood by the Sterns? Very fun book to read.</p>
<p>Favorite Food network show. Have been to a few of the places in Seattle and they were good. Will go to the Austin ones in a few months.</p>
<p>Went to a burger place in St. Paul that was highlighted. It was great!</p>
<p>I only really watched the one where he went to a diner that I live close to but where I had never gone. </p>
<p>After I saw it (he seemed very impressed) I went. It was very good…for a diner. But haute cuisine, it was not. That’s to be expected, though, I imagine.</p>
<p>I’ve gone to a couple of the places in New England that the Sterns include in their book. And I’ve never been disappointed.</p>
<p>We are seriously addicted to this show.</p>
<p>OH, FUN! There’s a RoadFood.com, with the Sterns on the team…Guess the vaccuming won’t get done till later!</p>
<p>barrons, what Austin restaurants have been featured?</p>
<p>Never seen the show, but grew up in seattle. </p>
<p>Why isn’t hatties hat or the dish on this list?</p>
<p>Beths cafe? You have got to be kidding
red mill is great but it isn’t a diner , a drive in or a dive.
But you can get a car hop
at burgermaster.</p>
<p>Ezells is across from ds high school so we have had their food many times - strictly take out as is dicks except for the one on queen anne.</p>
<p>Beths? My stomach hurts just thinking about it
and house of hong is the one for dim sum - everybody knows that.

Ditto! Not quite sure how to blend this thread with the “Diet & Wellness” one, though …</p>
<p>Youdon’tsay: I’m not barrons, but here are the ones the website says were in Austin:</p>
<p>-Maria’s Taco XPress
-Casino El Camino
-Magnolia Cafe
-Green Mesquite</p>
<p>Mag’s is the only one really worth it, IMO.</p>
<p>I love this show! Perhaps it explains why I had to create a wellness thread.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>OP here…I actually was on the Diet & Wellness one just before I started this. It was making me hungry.</p>
<p>I think the only way to “blend it” in with that thread is to say “Dieters, DON’T GO HERE.” ;)</p>
<p>Thanks, Alexa. I’ve been to three of the four. :)</p>
<p>We love the show too. Almost all the places he goes look great. DH says that would be a perfect retirement job for him,lol. We have been to one of the places featured in Charlotte…as good as advertised and very crowded.</p>
<p>My 11-year old asked me to cook something we saw on DDD. It was the “Captain Crunch coated French toast.” Let me tell you, it was amazing.</p>
<p>Love the show too and have been to several places Guy featured while traveling. I often consult the FN website before a trip.</p>
<p>Santa brought DH the DDD book which includes the recipe for the Cap’n Crunch French Toast…I wondered how it was! I’ll have to try it!</p>
