HUNTINGTON -- If a Food Network segment is good the first time, it's even better as left-overs.

The "Something Different" episode of the Food Network show, "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives," premiered last month, but you can still catch it one last time this week.

The episode, that features Sonny and Sharie Knight's Hillbilly Hot Dogs restaurant in Lesage, W.Va., just north of Huntington on Ohio River Road (W.Va. 2), airs at noon Friday, May 9.

In the episode description, Guy Fieri rolls out to find some places doing great food their own unique way: The West Virginia joint built into a couple of old buses, where they're serving one pound deep fried hot dogs -- and three pound burgers; The Florida bar that's doing classic French escargot and fresh mahi mahi sandwiches; and in Virginia, what looks like just another café, but with a classically trained chef who's making it all from scratch -- from chicken with feta, white wine and artichokes, to homemade pesto.
