What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

The episode 'Mexican Favorites' (S9E6) featured Aqui Es Texcoco, spotlighting the restaurant's slow-cooked, Mexican barbacoa-style lamb. Aqui Es Texcoco is a Mexican restaurant with locations in Chula Vista and Pico Rivera, California, built around traditional barbacoa preparation and Mexican comfort food. The business's own website, aquiestexcoco.com, returned an active page on 2026-07-28 with 2026-dated content, posted daily hours running into the evening seven days a week, and a working online ordering system.
