Cockroaches and mice force restaurants to close
By Martin van den Hemel - Richmond Review - April 08, 2008
There are few things less appetizing than finding mouse droppings inside a cooking bowl and cockroaches on a plate of steaming food.

But both resulted in local health inspectors shutting down two downtown Richmond restaurants last week.

A customer who complained of finding a cockroach in their cooked meal prompted Richmond health officials to investigate and eventually shut down a Chinese restaurant inside a local mall on Friday.

California Hong Kong Cafe, located at 322-5300 No. 3 Rd. at Lansdowne Centre, was ordered closed when a health inspector found evidence of an active cockroach infestation, as well as unsanitary conditions.

"In this case, they were active. They were observed to be traveling throughout the kitchen area and so it was not surprising, based on the complaint...when an infestation is that bad that they're actually falling into the cooked food product," health inspector Dalton Cross said. "It was a fairly substantial infestation."

It wasn't until Monday afternoon, after pest control was called and a thorough clean-up was conducted, that health inspectors gave the all-clear signal and allowed the restaurant to reopen.

Owned and operated by Se Wy Lim, the restaurant was last inspected in August, when an inspection uncovered only minor deficiencies and no pests. Those deficiencies, related to food storage, were rectified during a subsequent inspection.

Dalton said that cockroaches sometimes find their way into restaurants by hiding inside the lining of corrugated cardboard boxes.

"Anyone is vulnerable because large food warehouses are not immune to having cockroaches either, and these are the places that supply food to our local restaurants and that's why restaurants are encouraged to always have a contract with a pest control company and to undergo routine inspections by these companies as well as treatment should anything ever be seen."

Last Wednesday, a routine inspection at Van Cheong Tea Palace, at 2800-4151 Hazelbridge Way, uncovered a rodent infestation as well as unsanitary conditions.

That restaurant was allowed to re-open on Friday.

Cross said there were mouse droppings found in some of the cooking pots and bowls and certain areas of the kitchen, as well as food debris built up in the microwave oven, stove and dishwashing areas, and dry storage room.

"The problem is that those build-ups of food stuffs provide ongoing food for the rodents. You'll never get rid of rodents or other pests if they have an adequate food supply."

Last week's discovery wasn't the first time Van Cheong Tea Palace, operated by Tim Yang, was found to have rodent trouble.

During an inspection in June of last year, mouse droppings were seen in hard-to-reach areas, inclucing under shelves, equipment and sinks.

At the time, it was noted that the restaurant hadn't hired a pest monitoring company and health officials ordered that they do so immediately.

General sanitation of the restaurant needed improvement, the health department wrote in its report.

We should go there and enjoy the most safer restaurant, because they will clean everything when they have been closed.

They will be closely monitored by the health authority,
sometime they could only get their health permit renewed
every month instead of annually, it means the health
standard to be evaluated every month, ouch!
