Noticed that the episode with Nic's Grill in OKC is supposed to air at 7 CDT tonight.

Sorry if this has been posted before, but I was curious as to how many "diners, drive-ins and dives" from the TV series that you've visited.

As far as I know the only ones I've been to are Nic's and Eischen's in Okarche.

Here's a link to an interactive map that breaks them down by state:

Been to five here in Colorado, and Eischen's when I lived in OK.

Guy Fieri bugs me, but most of the places featured do look really good (and not really good for you) :).

Mama E's, and I was not impressed. Nic's was closed down for remodeling the last time I went by there(bout 3 weeks ago).

Forgot about Cattleman's and Ingrid's.

I heard that Mama E's had gone downhill since it was featured on the show.

Anyone been to Leo's BBQ, which was on DDD several years ago?

When I went to Leo's everyone said to try his BBQ beans. At the time he had a secret ingredient that he would not reveal. I tried his beans and immediately identified the seasoning. It was Old Bay. He asked how I knew and I told him we put it on everything in these parts.

I went to R&R Tanquiria two weeks ago. Damn near couldn't find the place. It was very good.

Okay, I have a question for the OKC metro folks. The last couple of times I was in OKC, I didn't go to Leo's, but on my next trip I'd like to go. Do they still have a location in NW OKC (somewhere off of Western)? I've eaten at the Kelley location a lot, but just before I moved (back in '95), they had opened a second location.

A good friend traveled all over the country for her job. She planned her meals around his recommendations.
