What happened after Man v. Food?

The same Virginia Beach episode, aired January 18, 2022, also stopped at The Egg Bistro, an independently owned breakfast-and-brunch restaurant with locations in the Haygood and Strawbridge sections of Virginia Beach, according to the restaurant's own site. Wikipedia's episode list records the episode's food challenge as a Corned Beef Omelet Challenge, a 12-egg omelet loaded with a pound of corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese and served with corned beef hash, though it does not specify which stop hosted it. The Egg Bistro's menu centers on all-day breakfast plates, brunch cocktails, and space for private events; the restaurant has since opened a third location in the Greenbrier section of Chesapeake. The restaurant's website, marked with 2026 seasonal promotions including a summertime limited-time menu and a 2026-dated private-event menu, lists current hours and locations at 2129 General Booth Blvd in Strawbridge, 1033 Independence Blvd in Haygood, and 501 Kempsville Rd in Chesapeake.
