Local media reported that eight non-working rusty freezers were found in the restaurant, filled with bags of unmarked and undated meat and fish. Cockroaches ran around the kitchen, and rat traps were placed in the corners.

In addition, several prohibited and illegal products were found in the restaurant among the cooks' supplies, including sea cucumbers, the fishing of which is prohibited by strict maritime laws.
The restaurant was decided to be closed, and an investigation was launched against the owner due to suspected crimes in the field of health care.
