Two Local Kitchens Take Flavortown
Mezzaluna Pasteria & Mozzarella Bar in Bentonville and Saiwok Vietnamese Street Food in Rogers are both landing on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, and The Botanical is hosting a watch party for the occasion. You’ll get to see two NWA favorites, an Italian spot known for fresh pasta and mozzarella and a Rogers counter serving up banh mi and pho, share screen time with Guy Fieri.
Brush Up Before Kickoff
Trivia covers both menus, so brushing up ahead of time gives you an edge. Mezzaluna’s episode of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas podcast is worth a listen beforehand too, since a few questions pull straight from it.
Catch the Episode Live
Once trivia wraps, the room turns its attention to the TV for the 8 p.m. episode. You’ll get to watch two NWA restaurants show up on national television with a crowd of people who already know exactly how good the food is. Grab a table, bring your appetite for trivia, and be part of the crowd when Flavortown comes home.
