What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise featured Crisp in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois, in the season 11 premiere episode "Lay It on Thick," spotlighting the restaurant's Korean fried chicken. The business operates as a Korean fried chicken restaurant on North Broadway. According to the business's own website (crisponline.com), checked 2026-09-08, the restaurant is open Tuesday through Sunday, 11:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., and lists a phone number along with working links to order pickup or delivery directly from the site. The menu described on the site includes wings, a whole bird option, chicken sandwiches, Buddha bowls, and fries the site calls Superfly Frites. The page did not display a copyright year or another explicit 2026 date, so this finding relies on the presence of current hours and working ordering links rather than a dated statement, and no second independent source was reviewed for this record.
