Let's go back a few years to when TV food show host Guy Fieri paid a visit to Laramie, Wyoming, in search of a family-run business and a uniquely named dish.

In late 2021, Guy Fieri visited Laramie, Wyoming, to film episodes for Food Network's "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives," featuring local eateries including J's Prairie Rose, Born in a Bar, and the Crowbar & Grill. The episodes, which aired in spring 2022, showcased unique Wyoming comfort food and popular local spots.

J's Prairie Rose (204 E. Fremont St.): Featured for its "7220 Burrito" (named after the city's altitude), a large burrito packed with slow-roasted pork, hash browns, and green chili.

From the Diner's & Dives website, they did the following write-up about J's Prairie Rose Cafe:

When it comes to finding that perfect café where you can relax, enjoy a hearty meal, and feel like part of the family, J's Prairie Rose Cafe in Laramie, Wyoming, fits the bill.

Diner's & Dives wrote quite a bit more than that bout the J's. It's worth reading. But it's also worth visiting. Some of the best places to eat are little-known, out-of-the-way, and family-run businesses.
