  Let me take you through the enchanted doors of a mountain casita nestled on the famous Camelback Mountain at a luxury boutique Arizona resort. Inside, ... the GUY with the blonde spiky bleached-blonde hair, retro bowling shirt and larger than life personality, stands out among the 50 guests. That’s because the guy, is Guy Fieri,  the face of the Food Network.  And it’s why the eclectic group of partygoers gathered for a chance to meet the restaurateur and Food Network TV star.

 The chance for a photo with Guy, an autographed copy of his latest book and a three-course dinner with advanced reservations at the Sanctuary Resort on Camelback Mountain, was $295 per person. There was also a $195 option for  fans who chose to just attend the dinner portion of the evening.  In classic Guy style, he entertained the crowd of about, detailing his recipes for their culinary feast.

  Look at the size of that rib-eye! If the book and photos weren’t meaty enough of a perk for Guys’ fans, the dinner certainly was. witth cave man size rib-eye..   Some guests broke out the hair gel Guy style and a bowling shirt. Of course, the Sanctuary Resort's head Chef Beau MacMillion , who has also appeared on the Food Network with Guy, was also at the private dinner party.

 Although there were some classic cars being parked at the valet, no, Guy didn't pull up in his famous bright red 1967 Camero which he steers around  the country on his TV Series, "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives." 

But he may be adding to his collection of classic cars. One of the party guests has a classic car for sale which Guy may be interested in buying. Stay tuned!
