What happened after Food Paradise?

The Baltimore episode featured Faidley's Seafood for its jumbo lump crab cakes, sold at a stand-up counter inside Lexington Market where diners eat standing at surrounding tables. According to Wikipedia (revised 2025-09-29), Faidley's is one of the oldest restaurants of its kind in the Chesapeake Bay area and is best known for those crab cakes. The business's own website, checked 2026-09-08, carries a 2026 copyright notice and posted current hours — Monday through Thursday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday and Saturday until 5:30 p.m., closed Sunday — for its 119 N. Paca Street location inside the market's Paca Street entrance. Both the current website and the Wikipedia entry describe Faidley's in the present tense as an operating seafood counter, and no dated source was found indicating any closure or relocation.
