What happened after Food Paradise?
Food Paradise's Minnesota State Fair episode featured The Rabbit Hole, a vendor known for inventive, Southeast-Asian-influenced fair treats such as a buttermilk miso soft-serve cone shaped like a carp and filled with roasted-strawberry jam, according to past State Fair coverage. The Rabbit Hole has operated inside the International Bazaar building at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds in Falcon Heights, sharing counter space at the Midtown Global Market booth with other rotating vendors rather than holding a fixed storefront of its own. That shared-booth arrangement means the vendors present at the location change from year to year.
A 2026-09-09 check of the International Bazaar's own page returned general building information for the 2027 fair rather than a Rabbit Hole-specific listing. The Rabbit Hole, the Korean-inspired gastropub in Minneapolis's Midtown Global Market that ran the International Bazaar booth, closed permanently in June 2018, and Yelp's listing for the restaurant, last updated in August 2026, still shows it as closed with no reopening indicated.
