What happened after Food Paradise?
The episode featured Saz's Bavarian Haus, a German-style pretzel and beer stand the Milwaukee restaurant group Saz's has long operated on the Wisconsin State Fair grounds. Saz's Hospitality Group also runs a flagship sit-down restaurant, Saz's State House, outside the fairgrounds. According to sazs.com and the fair's own site, wistatefair.com, both checked 2026-09-07, Saz's continues to run a Bavarian-themed pretzel stand at the fair, now listed as Saz's Bavarian Pretzel rather than Bavarian Haus. Sazs.com also lists a sweet lemon-berry cheese curd dish as a 2026 Sporkies award finalist, one of the fair's annual new-food contests, indicating active 2026 participation by the Saz's brand. No current listing under the original Bavarian Haus name was found, so the exact continuity between the two names is inferred rather than confirmed by a single source naming both.
