The fourth restaurant Fieri visits is a BBQ joint in Memphis, Tennessee, where he challenges the chef to prepare a dish using only pork ribs, mustard, and coleslaw. The chef comes up with a mouth-watering dish that combines the smoky flavor of pork ribs with the tangy flavor of mustard and the crunch of coleslaw.

In the fifth restaurant, Fieri visits a Mexican restaurant in San Francisco, California, where he challenges the chef to prepare a dish using only corn tortillas, avocado, and cilantro. The chef creates a delicious dish by frying the tortillas and using them as the base for tacos filled with avocado and cilantro.

Finally, Fieri visits a soul food restaurant in Houston, Texas, and challenges the chef to prepare a dish using only catfish, black-eyed peas, and hot sauce. The chef impresses Fieri with her skills, creating a flavorful dish that brings together the subtle taste of catfish with the distinctive flavor of black-eyed peas and the heat of hot sauce.

Overall, "Diners Drive Ins And Dives" season 7 episode 3, "Name That Cook," is an exciting episode that highlights the creativity and culinary skills of talented chefs across the country.
