Kuma's Corner

At this Chicago joint, each item is named after a metal or rock band like Led Zeppelin. This brings the food to life by embodying the artists it highlights.
Fieri’s favorite was the Black Sabbath burger. In line with its name, the burger features blackening spices, pepper jack cheese, chili, and red onion between pretzel buns.

Irazu

This casual, rustic Costa Rican restaurant brings Chicago a wide range of home cooked foods like casados, burritos, and tacos. Fieri couldn't get enough of the steak.

Franks' Diner

This Wisconsin location is the United States' oldest operating diner. Its claim to fame is the Garbage Plate, which encompasses every
breakfast ingredient imaginable.
The Mayor of Flavortown indulged in the chorizo version of this renowned order back in 2007,
and he was so impressed that he returned to the eatery again in 2021.

Senate Pub

This pub in Blue Ash, Ohio is known for its upscale hot dogs. Fieri called its K-Pop dog, which has kimchi, braised short rib, and pickled cucumber, a "winner wiener."

Look's Marketplace

This establishment in Sioux Falls can be compared to a Whole Foods or Costco. It has expansive grocery aisles and an entire restaurant providing hot food.
The eatery sells everything from fresh salads and soups to burgers, pizza, and shareables. What got Fieri's attention was the Porcules sandwich stuffed with pork.
