You Gotta Eat Here! - 3 ª Season

At Rangoli in Vancouver, BC, celebrity chef Vikram Vij cooks with all the exotic Indian flavours of his upscale restaurant, Vij's, but enthusiastically serves them with a casual twist. Host John Catucci trades in his fork for naan to enjoy a Vegetarian Red Curry, Lamb Curry, and Pulled Pork in Indian spices. In Kitchener, ON, everybody loves pigtails, so John can't wiggle out of trying the Lancaster Smokehouse's smoky, southern, soul food treat. Then at The Big Orange Lunchbox in Charlottetown, PEI, John discovers that regardless of whether his burger is made from beef, halibut or three types of poultry, he needs not only a bigger bun, but a bigger mouth.

Bin 4 might be named for the wines but it's the burger selection that brings fans and host John Catucci to this Victoria, BC restaurant. Pure beef, bison and pork, with no filler, makes up these delicious burgers. And there're plenty of amazing toppings like brie cheese and apple, so it's kinda healthy too. The name is Bond, Jane Bond, and it's no secret that this Waterloo, ON vegetarian restaurant is on everyone's hit list. Agent John Catucci infiltrates chef Vicky's kitchen to uncover how her Eggplant Parmesan Sandwich controls the minds and bellies of her patrons. "Yazoo" the pizzas are good at UNA in Calgary, AB! John learns how combining Napolitano flour with California baking techniques makes the crust that makes these pizzas awesome. And don't get John started on their meatballs, cuz it's embarrassing when you see him kiss his food. Salute!

In Calgary, AB, host John Catucci discovers nothing could be finer than to eat at Fine Diner. The meatballs remind him of his father's, the veggie mac & cheese is loaded with mushrooms sautéed in truffle oil, and you just gotta love the maple syrup bacon wrapped meatloaf! PEI is famous for its potatoes and Famous Peppers is famous for topping their pizzas with PEI potatoes, donairs, tacos fixin's and fresh fruit. John knows this pizza joint will be famous for more than just it's 15 minutes! And in Vancouver, BC, DD MAU "Asianifies" comfort food, with specialties like its Lemongrass BanhMi Sandwich, Vermicelli Noodle Bowl & BBQ Duck. DD MAU is Vietnamese for "go quickly", John suggests, "DO IT!!!!!

Fresh and Sweet doesn't usually go with the handle, "roller derby queen", but this Regina, SK restaurant does because it's owned by one. Host John Catucci gets bowled over by chef Beata Thompson's fresh and sweet ingredients she uses in her massive brunch dishes like Bacon & Peach Pancakes and White Chocolate Banana Bread French toast. SWEET! Then at Gruman's in Calgary, AB, John finds that Jewish comfort food means Montreal smoked meat dishes, coleslaw and a side of western hospitality. And at Léché Desserts in Montreal, QC, doughnuts get the gourmet treatment inspired by the Lemon Meringue Pies, Pineapple Upside Down Cakes and Chicken Pot Pies mum used to bake. For Montreal Food fans, that's a "hole in one." And that's a doughnut joke!

Jack's in Kingsville, ON, where the food is friendly and the people are delicious... or is it the other way around? Host John Catucci travels to this destination gastropub where locals and tourists flock to enjoy Brisket & Stout Stroganoff, New England Smothered Chicken and Tempura Yellow Perch. You don't know Jack's until you get there. Next at Wilbur & Sabastian's in Port Coquitlam, BC, chef Christina Sepidoza melds Filipino with Canadian comfort foods and hides vegetables in her dishes, because just like mum, she "knows best."And if John cleans his plate, he can enjoy a Personal Apple Pie. Say what? Say Cheese! This Toronto, ON grilled cheese joint has John flipping for a wide world of ethnic flavours slammed between two slices of grilled bread with cheese. Think Bulgogi and Kimchee and you'll say,Say Cheese says a lot about elevating a Canadian classic. Nuff said!
