But, what if you are being served disastrous food? Yes, something similar happened at Jin Gu, a restaurant located in the Usera district of Madrid, the capital of Spain, where people were being served rotten food and it resulted in the shutting of the restaurant. As per reports, police raided the restaurant after receiving many complaints and subsequently shut down the place after being found to have violated numerous health codes.

During the raid, they found that the kitchen was cockroach-infested, and meat and fish lacked labels. The officials said that everything smelled of rotten seafood. Police also found staff catching the birds off the streets and killing them for meat.



As well as this, there were eight freezers allegedly containing unlabelled products, with no sell-by-date in sight and leaving them untraceable.
