Chef Matt Pikar’s restaurant is the first Afghan place Guy has visited on DDD. The cuisine is redolent of spices like turmeric, cardamom and saffron. Guy loved the tender lamb shanks served over fragrant basmati rice and topped with raisins, carrots, pistachios and slivered almonds. The Kofta Chalao, Afghan meatballs, were another feast of spice and flavor.
This trip, Guy Fieri uncovers some surprising culinary discoveries. In Columbus, Ohio, a hidden gem tucked away in a grocery store serves out-of-bounds Nepalese-Tibetan specialties. In Dallas, a Mexican spot serves standout seafood tacos and unique mole fries. Plus, another Dallas joint cooks up lights-out dishes straight from Afghanistan.
This trip, Guy Fieri's headed back to some stellar spots for rockin' recipes! First up, it's real deal Venezuelan in Norwalk, Conn., plating over-the-top arepas and the-bomb baby back ribs with a sweet-and-spicy twist. Then in Mesa, Ariz., Hawaiian cuisine is holding it down in the desert with island-inspired chicken wings and amped-up shrimp, while in Dallas, an outrageous Afghan joint is still going strong with killer kebabs and next-level lamb.
