This Friday, a restaurant that will surely make you drool is getting featured on Food Network.

Fieri took his red '68 Chevy Camaro to Chicago and stopped at Sfera. They are known for arancini and Italian sandwiches.

Arancini done right is to die for. If you're unaware, arancini are not easy to make; they're risotto balls stuffed with cheese and then fried.

It's the making of the risotto, which is the nightmare.

The claim online is that arancini are a piece of cake. Trust me, they're not. That's why I'd leave it to the pros at a place like Sfera.

Located in the Edgewater neighborhood of Chicago, Sfera hosted Fieri last October to film the 10-15 minute segment.

It took 13 hours to film that short bit. Kind of a crazy long day, don't you think?

The owners of Sfera, Steven Jarczyk and Daniela Vitale, told Block Club Chicago they were notified by a producer who recommended that Triple D feature their restaurant.

Jarczyk and Vitale have no idea who told Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives about the place, but they must be thankful.

The episode of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives featuring Sfera will air this Friday at 8 p.m. CST.

If you're craving that arancini without going to the Windy City, Sfera will deliver to your doorstep. Details are HERE.
