Gave him a book and got a picture and 2 bottles of signed Tequila



He has lost some weight!

Cool. I wish he’d film more in Louisiana , outside of greater Nola and Shreveport.

Everyone always craps on that guy, but he might just be a saint

I’ll see if it’s OK to say. The one I know about is a client of ours

Ageee with that. Think about the countless small business owners whose life changed because Triple D visited their restaurant - new jobs, new wealth and expansion.

And he seems like a genuinely good dude. Hope that's true.

very much so. “Saint” is probably not too far off from the truth

So jealous!

I’m going to the Sport Illustrated party tomorrow night, and I suppose it’s because I love the DJs playing at it, but the truth is I was going down the list of celebs in attendance rolling my eyes (Kardashian, gross.. Bieber, gross.. etc)… then I saw Guy!

So now I’m going with the one and only goal of meeting Guy Fieri. My favorite dude.

I like Guy. Son and I used to love watching Triple D.

He's seems like a good dude.

This. He’s done more for mediocre restaurants than anyone I can think of.

But I recognize that there is a market for price sensitive diners who want that novelty experience .

He does a better job than Rachel Ray ever did.

he also did a lot during covid to help these restaurants and workers

I love his family vacation show when they RV around the country and the spread they cook on vacation looks incredible

Credit him for carving out a niche and making a nice living from it

I think Anthony Bourdain popularized crapping on Guy like people crap on Nickle Back.

I like watching DDD, but sometimes GF can be a bit too much. That being said, I respect him for his philanthropic service to underserved communities and for bringing attention to small business owners.

90% of the country is represented by that market.
