The owner of Old King Bistro was as surprised as anyone

Not everyone can say they've been an answer on the popular television show Jeopardy. But a local restaraunt can now add that honour to its website.

Alishah Jesani is the owner of Old King Bistro. He was just having a typical day recently, getting ready to close up when he got a notification from a friend that his restaraunt had just been featured on the hit television show.

"They sent me a screenshot of their TV screen and it's the screenshot that's been going around. I saw that and I was still pretty shocked because it's so random how it happened."

The question was 'What is North America'? Jesani says he had no warning that his business was going to be featured on the program. He says he continued to receive multiple messages and even phone calls to the restaraunt immediately after it happened.

"It was pretty big news. I wasn't really sure how to take it, but it's pretty awesome though."

He says that he noticed a significant increase in online traffic to the restaraunt's website and social media accounts.

While it is tough to say if it had an impact on foot traffic on the weekend, Jessani says a number of people continued to mention the appearance on Jeopardy as they enjoyed their meal.
