Guy Fieri, a chef, restaurateur, New York Times Best Selling author and Emmy Award-winning TV host, has partnered again with Planet Hollywood founder and chairman Robert Earl, to open a fifth Chicken Guy location.

Located at 818 South Orlando Ave., in Winter Park, Florida, the 3,500 square-foot restaurant marks the duo's third location but first free-standing unit with a drive-thru. It will feature interior seating for 80 as well as seating for 12 outdoors and will have a sliding glass door of windows. The parking lot will have reserved spaces to accommodate third-party delivery services as well as guests who order online, with dedicated staff who will bring the orders directly to waiting cars.

"It's always such a pleasure to be able to work with Guy on Chicken Guy ventures and I'm beyond pleased to open a location in Winter Park," Earl said in the release. "Chicken Guy is a proven crowd-pleaser now with three locations in Florida and two in sporting arenas on game days including FedEx Field in Maryland and Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara; we are well on our way to becoming a household name nationwide."

With its flagship location in Disney Springs at the Walt Disney World Resort and a second location in Aventura Mall in Miami, Chicken Guy serves tenders with a choice of dipping sauce.
