Asheville restaurants are using social media to try and persuade television food show and game show host Guy Fieri to come to Asheville.

A video posted to YouTube by Tupelo Honey Cafe showcases several Asheville restaurants, including Bouchon, Luella’s and Rocky’s Hot Chicken Shack. The video includes a promo for the exploreasheville.com website, the website of the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce/Convention and Visitors Bureau. It urges viewers to post the video to Fieri’s page on FB.

From the video posting:

We want Guy Fieri, Star of Diners Drive-Ins and Dives, to visit Asheville, NC and see what we have to offer! Help us get Guy to Asheville by posting on his facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/GuyFieri. Share this video with your friends and get them to post on Guy’s page too!
