Where did Guy Fieri visit in Baltimore?

Can you think of a cooler job than being paid to sample delicious comfort food from restaurant kitchens all over the country?

Well that’s what Guy Fieri gets to do in each episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (also known as Triple D). Fieri visits casual-dining restaurants where he hangs out with the chefs and watches them prepare their most popular menu items from start to finish.

What’s one of Fieri’s favorite cities? Well, Fieri visits Baltimore so often that he’s even dedicated an entire episode to Charm City bites. So next time you’re scratching your head trying to figure out where to go to eat, give one of these Triple D locations a shot.

#1 Chap’s Pit Beef

What to Order: Pit beef, chaps submarine, bull dog sandwich

Known for its famous Maryland pit beef sandwiches, Chap’s Pit Beef has been awarded ‘Best of Baltimore’ 24 years and counting.  Any local can tell you why. From beef to turkey, this meat lover’s dream infuses each bite with a hint of smoky charcoal goodness.

#2 Blue Moon Cafe
1621 Aliceanna St
Baltimore, MD

What to Order: Captain Crunch french toast, red velvet pancakes, chile verde, Frito pie French toast

Captain Crunch cereal and French toast…why not marry the two together? Fieri finds some of the best comfort food here at Blue Moon Café and pastry chef and television personality Duff Goldman favors the Sweet Baby Jesus with Scrapple — layers of fried hash browns, crabmeat, cheese, tomatoes and eggs, smothered in hollandaise made right in house.

#3 R & R Taqueria
7894 Washington Boulevard
Elkridge, MD

What to Order: Tacos al pastor, roasted lamb tacos

This Mexican deli located in a gas station serves up some of the best tacos in Maryland. That’s why Guy Fieri visited with former Washington Redskins quarterback Joe Theismann for this episode.

#4 BOP Brick Oven Pizza
800 S Broadway
Baltimore, MD
What to Order: Philly cheesesteak pizza, mac and cheese pizza, vegan cheese pizza
This isn’t your typical pizza place. The specialty cheesesteak pizza was put “up there with the best” by Guy. There truly is something for everyone here, even vegans!

#5 Joe Squared Pizza

What to Order: Fried meat ravioli, bacon and clam pizza, flag pizza

Head into this pizza shop to try their four-cornered pie. The dough, made with imported Italian yeast, is made to impress, and the array of toppings seems endless. If that’s not enough for you, the fried ravioli is made completely from scratch. This location is another spot visited by Duff Goldman.

#6 Sip and Bite
2200 Boston St
Baltimore, MD

What to Order: Spanakopita, crab cakes

#7 Dipasquale’s
3700 Gough St
Baltimore, MD

What to Order: Arancini, lasagna, mozzarella, Lorenzo di Arabia pizza, “real deal” veal sandwich

#8 Broadway Diner
6501 Eastern Ave
Baltimore, MD

What to Order: Hungarian goulash, potato crusted salmon, shrimp creole

Big portions, lots of options, and open 24 hours – what more could you ask for? And if you’ve never tried goulash, try heading over to the place serving up the most “goulicious” version of it, according to Guy.

#9 Jimmy’s Famous Seafood
