For this edition of Inland Northwest Business Watch's local business profiles I figured I'd try something new, featuring several businesses with a common tie to each other like maybe an up and coming neighborhood filled with several locally owned and operated shops. Or in this case the Spokane restaurants that we're featured on Guy Fieri's hit Food Network TV show Diners, Drive-Inns and Dive's . Or as fans of the show call it, Triple D .
No area restaurants have popped up on the show very recently but as some may recall Guy and his crew came thru the area in 2010 and made several stops. While some disagreed with a few choices, all are very good and very local places to eat . If your looking for a place to eat in the Spokane and Coeur d' Alene area, look no farther then this list...

Editor's Note: The Elk Public House is one of my personal favorite places in Spokane. All of the other restaurants mentioned here are also worth a visit but if you only can choose one, I recommend The Elk. But please don't hate me if you don't agree.

Editors' Note: Capone's is also opening a new location on Government Way in Hayden very soon. We are working on getting info on their new bar which is in a new building but for the most part the same as the original in Midtown Coeur d' Alene.

Although all of the local restaurants featured on Diner's, Drive Inns and Dives we're featured some time ago, The Food Network does still air reruns of the episodes from time to time. Consult your local listings for air times.
