What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise's “Truck Stop Paradise” (aired 2013) featured Tiger Truck Stop, the 24-hour restaurant at the Interstate 10 truck stop in Grosse Tete, Louisiana, highlighting its Cajun specialties — daily plate lunches, boudin, alligator sausage, and gumbo. The family-run operation sits at I-10 exit 139, about 15 miles from Baton Rouge, and according to NATSO has been in business for more than five decades. Google Places currently lists the truck stop operational, and Yelp's listing, updated in September 2026, still shows it open with recent customer reviews. The stop continues to serve fuel customers and travelers around the clock alongside its truck-repair bays and diesel fueling lanes, with no dated report found of any closure or change in ownership since the episode aired in 2013.
