A number of restaurants, grocery stores and food stands have reportedly been shut down in recent weeks after the Philadelphia health department found a number of violations.
The eateries were asked to temporarily close their doors so they could address the violations, which included “mouse droppings, lack of running water, and an absence of a food safety certified person,”Philly.com reported.
