What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

The episode featured Manhattan Beach Post, chef David LeFevre's New American restaurant in Manhattan Beach, California, known for small, family-style shared plates, hand-crafted cocktails, and a curated list of small-production wines. LeFevre, previously executive chef at the fine-dining seafood restaurant Water Grill, opened the restaurant with a more casual, rustic menu built around local ingredients. It became the flagship of LeFevre's small South Bay restaurant group, which later grew to include Fishing with Dynamite, The Arthur J, and RYLA. A Yelp listing updated in August 2026 shows Manhattan Beach Post serving weekend brunch from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and dinner nightly from 5 to 9:30 p.m. The restaurant's own website, eatmbpost.com, lists LeFevre as chef and co-owner.
