Charles and I have been watching Guy Fieri's Diner, Drive-ins, and Dives on the Food Network for years and absolutely love the show!  It was our dream to one day go on the all American road trip and try some of the best food in America.  When we were touring NYC in Times Square, we found Guy's restaurant and decide to go in for a try.

The restaurant was very large with a 2-storey woodstone fire roasting many many birds.  We were greeted immediately and the wait for a table was considerably short (10 minutes?).  The waitress was very friendly, which I was surprised about (I usually find American's have a different sense of 'nice').  We ordered the rotisserie chicken and the cajun chicken pasta.  The rotisserie chicken was very flavourful and moist.  And the rosemary flavour still rings in your palette.  Charles really enjoyed his dish.  I was a little disappointed with mine because it wasn't as the name of the dish as described to be blackened chicken... although the flavours of the dish is still good.  I'm more impressed with the Baked Alaska dessert.  Normally I dislike lemon-ey dessert since I don't like sour things.  This Baked Alaska was actually really tasty and cleanses our palette well after a heavy meal.
