What happened after Food Paradise?

In 'Global Grub' (S19E32), the show featured Maiella, an Italian restaurant in Long Island City. Maiella is styled on its own website as an Italian restaurant, operating from a storefront on Center Boulevard in Long Island City's waterfront district. According to Maiella's own website, checked on 2026-09-08, the site returned HTTP 200 and listed the address as 46-10 Center Blvd, Long Island City, with a working phone number, free parking, and delivery service. The same site included an online ordering widget and separate pages for hours and location, menus, special events, and a loyalty program, alongside a reservations page. The website did not display a copyright year or a recent blog date at the time of the check, though its contact and ordering pages matched the address confirmed by Google Places.
