Diners, Drive-ins and Dives: 27x6

Ocean Coasts and Great Lakes

Meat Southern BBQ & Carnivore Cuisine (Lansing, Mich.) • La Tostadería Seafood (Los Angeles, Calif.) • The Grilled Cheese Bistro (Norfolk, Va.)

Guy goes from coast-to-coast and to the Great Lakes to dig up some dynamite dishes. In Michigan, an old-school heavy metal rocker smokin’ meats for killer combinations. In L.A.’s Grand Central Market, a Mexican counter spot cookin’ outrageous octopus tostadas. And in Norfolk, a downtown spot thinkin’ up gourmet sandwiches like a lobster mac-and-cheese grilled cheese mashup.
