What happened after Food Paradise?

The episode featured a historic Manhattan saloon and gastropub best known for its hamburgers, on a stop the show framed as a bucket-list destination. The business, P.J. Clarke's, has occupied its building at Third Avenue and East 55th Street in Manhattan since it was established in 1884, according to Wikipedia (revised 2026-07-11), making it one of the oldest continuously operating restaurants in New York City. A direct check of the restaurant's own site returned an access-blocked response, but a web search located the same Third Avenue location page listing current posted hours, including service until midnight Tuesday through Thursday. A Yelp listing for the address, updated July 2026, corroborates the restaurant as active, consistent with Google Places' operational status for the location. P.J. Clarke's also operates additional New York locations, plus outposts in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., according to Wikipedia. No reporting of a closure has surfaced for the Third Avenue location.
