Star Kitchen: Guy Fieri

Believe it or not, Guy Fieri has lived in the same Northern California house for 14 years. He and his wife, Lori, bought it when they were expecting their first son, Hunter. "It's important to me that the kids grow up in the house we had when they were born," Guy says.

On top of these cabinets, Guy keeps souvenirs from his travels and places he has visited on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. The autographed pizza peel is from The Original Vito & Nick's Pizzeria in Chicago.

To accommodate oversize cookware, like his 20-gallon jambalaya pot, Guy installed a 27,500-BTU Viking gas wok burner next to his regular range. "The only thing I don't like is waiting for a huge pot of pasta to boil," he says.

Guy is all about natural light — his home has 19 skylights — and wood. This counter, made from salvaged barn wood, doubles as front-row seating when he entertains: "The wives sit here and watch while the guys cook," he says.
