Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives or $40 a day in Columbus?

Had anyone seen any episodes of Food Networks Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives or $40 a Day or Roker on the Road, or any of their shows where a host goes to the best of the best in certain cites where they go to restaurants in Columbus, Ohio? I'm going to be traveling there this week and was interested in going to some places featured on either of those shows. I know they find the best, like the Primanti Bros. in Pittsburgh!

So, and Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives or $40 a day meals/restaurants in Columbus, Ohio?

Any places on those shows are paying to be included and are best avoided (they're all tourist traps).



I wouldn't trust the recommendation of Al Roker (he had stomach stapling...not like he's eating much), Rachel Ray (not exactly an experimentive culinary pallette), and Guy Fieri (complete tool and a total pr**k off-camera who knows less about food than a gerbil). They all visit the same bunch of places that don't mind paying to be on tv.



You're better off looking at local, city-based food blogs; a good jumping off point is egullet or chowhound.



Better yet...ask locals where they eat.Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives or $40 a day in Columbus?
I have not seen those shows feature Cols. restaurants but a show on the Travel Channel did a feature on the Thurman Cafe. If you haven't tried Thurman...they have GREAT burgers that are huge.
