What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

Skinnytato was the third stop in 'Kawaii Crepe; Argyle Street Grill; Skinnytato,' the You Gotta Eat Here! episode that TVmaze lists with an air date of 2013-04-19. TVmaze's episode summary says host John Catucci tries Polish cuisine at Skinnytato in Victoria, British Columbia, after visiting Kawaii Crepe in Winnipeg and the Argyle St. Grill in Caledonia, Ontario. A Google Maps listing places the restaurant at 615 Johnson Street in Victoria, postal code V8W 2A9. That listing, retrieved on 2026-10-19, marks the business permanently closed and gives no closing date. A web search for the restaurant by name found no news report or owner announcement, so the date and circumstances of the closure are undocumented, and no later business at the address was confirmed.
