NEW YORK (Reuters) – A Manhattan restaurant that unveiled a record-breaking $25,000 dessert last week has been forced to shut its doors temporarily due to an infestation of mice and cockroaches.
Serendipity 3 on the Upper East Side failed its second consecutive health inspection in a month on Wednesday night after health officials found a live mouse, mouse droppings in multiple places, flies and dozens of live cockroaches, the Heath Department said.
“We’re rectifying it as quickly as we can,” said owner Steven Bruce, adding the restaurant would then be allowed to reopen.
