I’ve met him a few times. He’d show up at one of the groups cooking for the Firefighters during the CA wildfires, spend a few minutes looking in smokers, then go get his photo ops, then leave taking all the credit. He’s a giant DBag.
I know the face, never knew his name though. 😋

Fieri managed to make something of himself without going to cooking or pastry school. He got a degree in hotel management instead. Most of the professionally trained/educated bakers and cooks look down on people like Fieri because they didn’t go to those schools. They look at them as sub-standard. It’s the snobbery, and class system within the food industry. Same thing with journalists who have a four year degree in journalism, but then snub journalists who didn’t attend journalism school. I remember how they attacked Drudge for not having a journalism degree when he first started his Drudge Report.
Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives. Sounds like the kind of places I like to eat in.
I prefer the fire of Ramsey. Just love the guy...he gets the best out of you....he’s certainly made a difference in my kitchen.
Interesting. The secret to his success is having a supportive father and mother. Everyone needs both. I give him credit for learning French at age 16. He was married in 1995 and won Next Food Star in 2005. Now he is happily married, has two sons, owns 63 restaurants and makes $20 million a year. Pretty good for a kid from Nixon’s home town, Whittier.
And there are NO Italian “great pizza chefs” Italians did not invent this— American Italian immigrants did- on their own.
Poor soul- why not study real Italian cuisine instead— real quality Italian historical and palatable cuisine from the Old Country? Why because there are more than a few who could out do him. Sorry lot of foodies can’t stand this guy.
I guess Guy peed in some FReepers cheerios at some point. SMH.
It takes real talent to dress like you’re sole purpose in life is to piss off upper-level management.
The guy has way too many shows on the Food Network. But they’ve been good to his bottom line. Even Hunter has made a name for himself as Guy’s sidekick.
