PINELLAS PARK, Fla. — A week after the state ordered the temporary emergency closure of the Hao Wah Chinese Restaurant because of a roach infestation, the establishment is closed yet again.
This comes after 10News report showed remaining roaches after health inspectors initially gave the restaurant the all clear last week.
Video from Wednesday night’s Restaurant Red Alert report showed live roaches crawling around the buffet line and an additional dead roach on the floor near the Mongolian grill.
State health inspectors showed up late Wednesday after our report aired to reinspect and wrote the restaurant up with 32 new violations, including remaining live roach activity.
The restaurant remains closed until they can satisfy state inspectors that the more serious critical violations have been corrected.
