What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

Best Thing I Ever Ate featured Yang Chow in the episode 'With Chopsticks.' Yang Chow is a Chinese restaurant specializing in Mandarin and Szechuan cuisine, with three locations across Southern California, according to the restaurant's own website. The site describes Yang Chow as home to its 'world-famous Slippery Shrimp,' one signature dish. This Yang Chow location operates at 3777 East Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena, California, rather than Los Angeles as originally logged, based on the address on file. A check of yangchow.com on 2026-09-08 showed a 2026 copyright notice, current online ordering, and a title reading 'Home - Yang Chow,' indicating the restaurant was operating as of that check. No closure, relocation, or ownership change was found in the sources reviewed.
