This Restaurant was shut down for preparing samosas in toilet for over 30 years

A restaurant in Jeddah city was shut down by Saudi Arabia authorities recently after they discovered that it had been preparing samosas and other snacks in toilets for more than 30 years.

Acting on a tip-off, the Jeddah Municipality authorities raided the place and found that the workers in the shop were violating residency laws and had no health cards.

Report says, the restaurant used to prepare snacks and also meals in washrooms. Not just that, the Municipality officials found that the eatery used expired food articles like meat, chicken and cheese, some of which expired back two years. Insects and rodents were also spotted at the site.

This is not the first time that a restaurant has been shut down in Saudi Arabia for unhygienic conditions.

According to Gulf News, in January this year, a famous Shawarma restaurant in Jeddah was also closed after a rat was spotted wandering around and feasting on meat on top of a skewer.
