TVmaze's listing for the episode "Charlene's Bayside Restaurant, Tide and Boar Cafe, Prince Albert's Diner" (S1E6, aired 2012-08-29) says a burger topped with bacon and peanut butter was the dish host John Catucci tried at Prince Albert's Diner in London, Ontario. According to CTV News London, the diner opened in 1996 and was known for milkshakes and twists on classic diner food; brother and sister Bill Spigos and Betsy Gallo ran it. On 2021-11-03 Sarnia News Today reported that the owners had announced the 50s-style diner at Richmond and Albert Streets would close in about a month, with no exact date given.
