I would say Krystal's because you never know if an ex-employee will become a baby snatcher. Will force you to keep your eyes on your double cheese krystal at 2 am in the morning.

I would have recommended Goal Post Sandwich Shop. I would have also added The Chicken Koop just because of Pimp Chicken purplr suited goodness.

Does anyone have a concrete date for when this will be aired ?  I still haven't been able to find the episode in future programming.

On a side note:  I don't know what will be featured in their segment, but we went to Metro Diner yesterday to try the much hyped "Chicken & Waffles".  If your arteries can handle it, It's certainly one of the more unique items in town.  Delicious, huge portions, & great presentation.  The fried chicken was perfect - lightly dusted with powdered sugar.  I've always had C&W with fillets, so bone in white meat frying pieces (4!) was a new twist for me (I'm not sure what's traditional, however.).  The waffles were served in quarters - with a mound of whipped fresh strawberry butter on top.  Lastly, it was served with a maple syrup / Tabasco blend.  Plan to share.......

Singleton's Seafood Shack will air on Epsiode DV0901H called “Surf 'n Turf”.

Guy checks out his own take on surf and turf.In Mayport, Florida, a 40-year-old fish shack getting shrimp fresh off the boat every day, and serving it nine different ways. In Manhattan Beach, California, a surf town cafe where the homemade menu goes from Italian pasta to Kahlua Pig Egg Rolls. And in Reno, Nevada, a 54-year-old western diner doing beef-burgers by the pound.

It will air:

13 Gypsies will air on Episode DV0903H called “Globetrottin”

This trip Guy pulls in for a world of taste. In Los Angeles, California, an El Salvadoran place making traditional stuffed tortillas and a pork stew called Adobada. In Reno, Nevada, a Basque joint serving oxtail bourguignon family style. And in Jacksonville, FL, a tapas café doing scratch made Spanish chorizo with honey sautéed pears.

if you haven't been to Col Mustard's, well he's a little vocal with his opinions, for example he doesn't trust  woman around his cash, so he will warn you to move away from the cash register when he has to turn his back on you to cook your food.
He has really good burgers, but you have to eat them while watching FOX news, and he has a really strong opinion if you try to turn the channel.

Sounds like a douche
For the record, Col. Mustard is the most amazing person ever spurted out by a human woman. 95% of what he says and does is tongue and cheek humor, and it is hilarious. Example: First time I went it was with my mom and dad, and as soon as we walked in he told my mom to start wiping down tables. Within 30 seconds we knew he was just screwing around, and then he made one of the best damn burgers I've ever had. Man's a legend.

Oh so he’s a jokester. I stand corrected.
Conformulate. Be conformulatable! It's a perfectly cromulent deed.

13 Gypsies aired last night - they dedicated half of the show to them.  I never expected that place to thrive when they initially opened with such a small dining room & limited hours, but it's been at the top of my list since I first went.  It'll be a tall task getting a seat there in the near future - as if it wasn't already.  I loved the melted honey bear dispenser over the stove & the subsequent comment - "He's got a gangsta lean".

Yeah, he had some good one liners for sure.  I was smiling from ear to ear when the 13 Gypsies segment ran so long they actually had to take a commercial break to split it up.  Two thumbs up!

It's horribly out of sync though.

Metro Diner looked pretty amazing on DDD tonight. I'm going to try their "salad" later this week.
