Diners, Drive-ins and Dives 2007 – Sub Indo: 22x9

To Bakersfield and Beyond

Athena’s Greek Cafe and Bakery (Bakersfield, Calif.) • Pyrenees Café (Bakersfield, Calif.) • Asian Experience (Taft, Calif.)

This trip, Guy’s givin’ some love to a little town with a lot of flavor. In Bakersfield’s Rosedale neighborhood, a Greek place cookin’ up authentic comfort foods like cabbage dolmades and braised beef over pasta. Across town, a landmark Basque joint servin’ garlic fried chicken and a four-course meal with outrageous oxtail. And west of town in Taft, the funky Asian joint dishin’ out killer pad Thai and a favorite called tom yum kung.
