You Picked 'Em (DV0706H)

Season Seven, Episode Six

You Picked 'Em - Original Airdate 09/07/09

Guy Fieri heads out for some great places viewers asked him to visit. In Okarche, Oklahoma, a family restaurant serving fried chicken the exact same way for more than 40 years - dozens of you wrote in about that one; A viewer's favorite in downtown LA -- a Mexican joint doing 500 hand made tamales a day; And a favorite suggested by viewers in Houston - a deli in a strip mall making corned beef and kreplach like they do back in New York.

Mom's Tamales was AWESOME. Mom and daughter are both nice as can be. Get there early for best selection, and they close at 4 pm (rough neighborhood in the evening). You just couldn't ask for better tamales or service. I would eat there once a week if I lived in the area: LOVE THIS PLACE!
