What happened after Food Paradise?
The episode (S14E10, 'Dockside Dining') featured Pig Tails, a barbecue and burger restaurant on the shore of Lake Lanier in Flowery Branch, Georgia, with lake-view seating and weekend live entertainment. The business now operates as Pig Tales on Lake Lanier, serving barbecue, burgers, and wings alongside its waterfront setting. The restaurant's own automated site check returned an HTTP 403 response, but a Yelp listing for Pig Tales, updated June 2026, lists it at 6800 Lights Ferry Rd with a current phone number and hours of 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily.
Google Places, checked 2026-09-08, lists the business as operational at the same address. No reporting on a closure or ownership change for the restaurant turned up in the sources reviewed, and its Yelp and Tripadvisor listings continue to show it as an active lakeside restaurant.
