What happened after Food Paradise?

The episode, 'A Taste of Time' (S13E5), featured 82 Queen, a restaurant at 82 Queen Street in downtown Charleston (zip 29401) that describes itself on its own site as an authentic Southern restaurant. The business's website promotes group and party bookings through a dedicated party-booking page, alongside catering packages for birthdays, holiday parties, corporate events, and weddings, according to 82queen.com. Since the episode, the site remained reachable with a working online-ordering link when checked on September 9, 2026, and Google's business-profile data listed the restaurant as operational the same day. The page title, current as of that check, continued to describe the restaurant as an authentic Southern restaurant serving Charleston.
