What happened after Man v. Food?

Man v. Food's "Scottsdale, AZ" episode featured Dulce Churro Cafe, a dessert shop serving fresh, made-to-order churros with a range of toppings and fillings. Owner Jared Naumann opened the concept in 2018 near Higley and Baseline roads in Gilbert, Arizona, according to ABC15, which also reported the business's later expansion to a second location in Chandler. The show's crew filmed the segment at the Gilbert shop, per ABC15's coverage of Man v. Food's Phoenix-area production. The business's own website lists both the Gilbert and Chandler addresses as active, with an online ordering system and a seasonal menu currently featuring a pumpkin-spice churro, according to the site. Third-party delivery platforms DoorDash and Grubhub also list the Gilbert location as an active, orderable restaurant, according to those platforms' current pages. The shop continues to offer catering and gift cards through its official site.
