What happened after Food Paradise?

The 'Fully Loaded' episode featured Double Wide Bar & Southern Kitchen, a Southern-food bar in Manhattan's East Village at 505 E 12th St, between Avenues A and B. According to EV Grieve, the bar closed in March 2018 after seven years in the neighborhood. A Yelp business listing, updated in August 2026, still marks the page as closed, consistent with that report. The evidence packet supplied for this record initially pointed to an unrelated manufactured-home dealer in Brewerton, NY, roughly 250 miles away — a mismatched geocode result rather than the actual restaurant — so the address above was confirmed independently through a web search and Census geocoding rather than taken from that packet entry. No newer, dated source was found showing the East 12th Street space reopened as Double Wide.
