He plays a goof but heβs a good dude. During the cali wildfires a few years ago he was one of if not the first people out there serving free food to the fire fighters. Also triple D is great advertising for some of the restaurants he goes to.

But heβs a Trumpie. Yuck
Is he though? He was pictures at a very public event that Trump also attended. Has anything actually come out about his affiliations?
Yes. Mostly recently.

That is what I was talking about. There is a picture of him with Trump. That doesn't say anything about his affiliations.
I donβt think about Guy Fiery. Or whatever his name is.
Me neither but when I do heβs sort of hybridized with that guy from Smash Mouth.
The one who didn't eat all the eggs he promised to eat? The ones cooked by Guy Fieri? That Smash Mouth?
The one from Shrek fame yes.
Well, his name was Ferry before he took it to flavortown.
I'm actually a pretty big fan. I really like his show Guy's Grocery Games. It just seems different compared to most cooking shows/competitions out there. Most seem scripted and rigid. While I get that grocery games has to have a script it just feels off the rails sometimes and I find it appealing. I get that Guy probably isn't the best chef out there but just seems like a good dude who would always go out of his way to help others.
weird hair. Eats some greasy shit. I dont understand hows hes not 400 lbs.
Thats about it.
I always think of this review for one of his restaurants
He visited a restaurant I worked at one time. Didn't end up on DD&D, but still cool nonetheless
Seems like a really nice guy, who is good at promoting, especially a restaurant. There was a burger place on a cruise ship I went on recently that had his name on it, they were some great tasting burgers.
Seems like a decent guy. Didn't someone steal his lambo?
Seems like a nice enough guy, but I'm not a fan. Which is fine, since I'm not his intended audience.
Mostly Harmless.
I don't
He's no master chef, but he's an okay businessman and very skilled marketer.
Personally I think he's annoying, and belongs in some random decade fron last century instead of the current one.
He's a celebrity chef.
I can't think of him the same ever since I've read homestuck
His own restaurants suck, but the places he shows off on one of his shows that I've also visited have been pretty impressive. So he does have good taste. Uh... In food anyway. His clothing style could use some work.
He makes bank off that style. If he just wore Levi's and a white T nobody would know him.
He does look unique, true. But it's not a style I'd want to emulate lol
Yeah - some of the places in DDD he visits are amongst the best, and definitely deserves the extra attention. I know some local spots that have his picture. Heβs got great taste.
I do wish his own restaurants are better. But theyβre not the worst, but far from good. The best thing I can say is that they can accommodate large groups which is hard to find in Boston. Itβs inoffensive enough if youβre getting a burger and fries.
Seems like a nice person with an interesting show. I wouldn't eat at his chain of restaurants, though.
I don't really know, seems kind of obnoxious I guess? My kid liked his rootbeer BBQ sauce though.
Never heard of him
