What happened after Man v. Food?

Casey Webb's second Oakland stop was Molcajete Cocina Mexicana, a restaurant serving traditional Mexican dishes. He tried the Molcajete Especiale, a mix of flattop-fried mozzarella, Monterey Jack, and Oaxaca cheeses combined with grilled steak, chicken, chorizo, and prickly pear cactus, along with beans, sautéed vegetables, lettuce, pico de gallo, cilantro, guacamole, lime, beer-battered shrimp, and sour cream, all served in a heated stone molcajete with a side of homemade tortillas. This was a tasting stop rather than a timed challenge. A web domain matching the restaurant's name now hosts only a blank default WordPress template page with no menu, address, or contact information, and no other source could confirm the business's current address or operating status with the tools available for this record.
