Three restaurants located within Birmingham’s Arcadian Food Court have been ordered to close following the discovery of rat and cockroach infestations.
The establishments affected are A Zhen Kitchen, Korean Soup and Rice, and Orient Canteen. Birmingham Magistrates Court granted hygiene emergency prohibition orders against these venues after inspections revealed significant pest issues posing risks to public health.
These closures underscore the importance of maintaining strict cleanliness and pest control measures in eateries to ensure food safety for patrons. Authorities continue to monitor the situation and will allow reopening only once the necessary hygiene standards are fully met and verified.
