At this cool little spot in Modesto, Chef-Owner Tye Bauer serves up a tantalizing array of dishes inspired by his Portuguese and German ancestries. Guy headed here on Diners Drive-Ins and Drives to chow down on the three-meat Octavian Sandwich (think Portuguese sausage, pulled pork and Portuguese braised beef) and a lamb burger topped with mushrooms, bacon and gorgonzola.
This is an alternate location of Bauer's 66 1/2 Skillet & Grill. You can view the original location featured on the show (now permanently closed) here.

This trip, Guy Fieri's firing up meaty meals and veggie specialties. In Modesto, Calif., a funky spot servin' up Portuguese sausage and a lights-out lamb burger. In Oakland, a vegan joint with outrageous okra gumbo and a meatless spin on succulent sandwiches. And in Islamorada, Fla., a carnivore's paradise dishin' out wicked wings and righteous pork rinds.
