"Zheng Restaurant forced to shut down due to unsanitary conditions"

Local | By Correspondent October 9, 2023

WILLEMSTAD - Zheng Restaurant, located on Corriweg, was compelled to cease its operations last Friday following an unannounced inspection conducted by a multidisciplinary team. 

During the inspection, several alarming issues were discovered in the restaurant's kitchen. Inspectors found flies on chicken and meat, and while vegetables were stored in containers on the floor, this still raised sanitation concerns. Additionally, it was revealed that the kitchen staff had not undergone health screenings as mandated by the Ministry of Health. The overall cleanliness and organization within the establishment were also deemed subpar by the inspectors. 

The closure of Zheng Restaurant underscores the significance of maintaining strict health and hygiene standards in food service establishments to ensure the safety of patrons and to adhere to regulatory requirements. The restaurant management is expected to address and rectify the identified issues before it can resume its operations.
