What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

In the episode 'Klondike Rib and Salmon, Colette's Place, Sofra' (aired 2013-03-08), host John Catucci ate Turkish food at Sofra in Edmonton, where the chef cooks kebabs on swords, and then prepared for a beef kebab challenge, according to TheTVDB's episode page. Edify Edmonton's 2016-03-01 write-up of its Best Mediterranean category described Sofra as a Turkish restaurant with Mediterranean flavours and a Turkish twist, near MacEwan University. It named the spicy beef adana kebab as the signature dish, mentioned garlicky hummus with pita from a stone oven, noted a newer cellar with soft seating and small plates, and recorded the restaurant's appearance on You Gotta Eat Here!

The restaurant is at 10345 106 Street. Its website, read in October 2026, offers pickup and delivery ordering through its menu, table reservations, catering, and a banquet space for weddings and special events, and its page metadata shows an update dated 2026-05-21.
