What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

TheTVDB's episode guide lists The Grilled Cheese segment of the 2012-08-15 episode as a grown-up take on the grilled cheese sandwich, including The Beast, a double-cheese, double-meat creation. The shop was in Toronto's Kensington Market. BlogTO's review page for it says it replaced a Belgian waffle shop, served variations on classic grilled cheese with a daily soup as the only other item, and praised the Dill-icious sandwich and the cozy, wood-paneled room; the same page carries a Now Closed label. BlogTO reported in August 2015 that the shop at 66 Nassau Street would not reopen after a temporary closure that began in late June, with a for-lease sign in the window and the space advertised on Kijiji. A separate business, Stuff'D Grilled Cheese & Tots, appears on Google Maps on Dundas Street West; it is a different restaurant and not the one shown in the episode.
