What happened after Food Paradise?
The episode "T.G.I. Fried" featured SoBou (South of Bourbon), a modern Creole restaurant and bar just outside New Orleans's French Quarter. The restaurant operated at 310 Chartres St., pairing playful takes on Louisiana classics with a cocktail-forward bar program. Google Places lists the location's business status as permanently closed. No current website, ordering page, or 2026-dated review for the restaurant at this address could be located. The absence of any active web presence or recent listing activity, combined with the permanently-closed status on Google Places, indicates the restaurant is no longer operating at its Chartres Street location.
