What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

Chick'nCone is a fried-chicken concept known for serving chicken tenders in a hand-held waffle cone, which began as a New York City food truck before expanding to storefronts. Best Thing I Ever Ate featured the waffle-cone chicken format in the episode "One of a Kind" (Season 9, Episode 17). According to Roaming Hunger, Chick'nCone grew from its original truck into permanent New York City retail spots, including a stall in the Turnstyle Underground Market near Columbus Circle. According to Harlem One Stop, the brand also runs a storefront at 370 Malcolm X Boulevard in Harlem. Yelp listings for a Midtown address at 1000 8th Avenue are inconsistent as of this check on 2026-09-07 -- one page, updated 2026-07, carries no closure tag while a separate Yelp page for the same address is tagged permanently closed -- so the current operating status of that specific location could not be confirmed within this record's search budget.
