What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

The 2013-03-01 episode of You Gotta Eat Here! (season 2, episode 6) showed John Catucci making samosas at Tibetan Kitchen in Victoria, British Columbia, according to the TVmaze episode listing, which names the stop Tibetan Kitchen Café. A Google Maps listing read on 2026-10-19 places Tibetan Kitchen Cafe at 680 Broughton Street in Victoria and lists its business status as operational, with the website tibetankitchencafe.com. When that website was read in October 2026 it returned an access-denied response to the automated reader, and the bare domain redirected to the SkipTheDishes home page, so no menu, hours or dates could be read from it. A web search for current coverage of the restaurant returned no news item, review or social post dated 2026.

A SkipTheDishes page for Tibetan Kitchen Cafe at 680 Broughton St, read 2026-10-19 and carrying a 2026 site footer, lists a priced menu that includes Tibetan momo at $17, vegetarian thukpa soup at $16, curries at $23 and gulab jamun at $7. The page shows a 7.2 rating and no review dates. Martlet described the restaurant in a list article dated 2018-09-03 as tucked away downtown on Broughton Street, serving pan-fried momos and hearty thukpa.
