What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

The Burner Restaurant & Lounge in Malakwa, British Columbia, was one of three stops in the Season 4 episode aired 2015-05-01. TV Guide's listing says Catucci tried smoked meats that fall off the bone, served in a building described as an old beehive-style burner. The Revelstoke Review reported on 2014-10-30 that the crew filmed in the kitchen and dining room for two days and called the building a converted sawmill burner. The Salmon Arm Observer reported on 2020-08-20 that the property at 4260/4268 Oxbow Frontage Road was for sale, describing a 55-seat pub and restaurant with a kitchen updated in 2017. The same newspaper reported on 2022-12-30 that the restaurant had closed in March 2020 during pandemic restrictions and reopened for limited hours from Dec. 26 to attract buyers. A BC hospitality directory page (go2hr.ca, undated) mentions new ownership, and a Google Maps listing checked 2026-10-19 is marked temporarily closed.
