And here comes the food tourists. Not that we’ll be complaining – Tacoma deserves the nod. Four "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" episodes that host Guy Fieri filmed in Tacoma, Parkland and Puyallup last September will air on the Food Network beginning tonight.

Tonight’s episode will feature Puyallup’s Crockett’s Public House. Bruno’s European Restaurant in Parkland will be featured Feb. 25 and Crown Bar’s episode will air March 4. Dirty Oscar’s Annex expects its episode to air sometime between March 11-April 15. Olympia already got its moment in the food spotlight – episodes filmed at Olympia’s Darby’s Cafe and Fish Tale Brew Pub aired in January and February.
