Smokey Valley isn’t known for it’s gimmicks, just good food after 30 years, but its Coconut Cream Pie caught the attention of folks from national TV. [4]
Truck stop owner Juanita Flannery said she had not watched the show when first contacted by producers, although she has since learned the show’s host, Guy Fieri, has a large and loyal following. [2]
Glad this lady and her restaurant’s getting national exposure and more business but I’ll bet she and her staff are getting pretty tired of looking at pie about now after having to make so many lately! [4]
