Dot's Back Inn (Richmond, Va.) • Scully's Tavern (Miami, Fla.) • Hillbilly Hotdogs (Lesage, W. Va.)

Guy Fieri rolls out to find some places doing great food their own unique way: The West Virginia joint built into a couple of old busses, where they’re serving one pound deep fried hot dogs – and three pound burgers; The Florida bar that’s doing classic French escargot and fresh mahi mahi sandwiches; and in Virginia, what looks like just another café’, but with a classically trained chef who’s making it all from scratch – from chicken with feta, white wine and artichokes, to home made pesto.

11th Street Diner (Miami Beach, Fla.) • Bobo Drive In (Topeka, Kan.) • Little Tea Shop (Memphis, Tenn.)

Guy Fieri searches out some classic joints including a 60-year-old Pennsylvania Diner transplanted to South Beach; in Topeka, Kan., a drive-in straight out of the 50s; and the oldest restaurant in Memphis, a classic southern tea room from 1918.
