They passed their inpsection the day before this was shot.

No, I’m not kidding.

(CBS) NEW YORK Health officials are going to review the inspection of a Greenwich Village KFC/Taco Bell, which was completed one day before CBS 2 cameras caught dozens of rats scurrying across the store, jumping on tables, and climbing into food trays.

“It doesn’t look like the inspection that was done Thursday met our standards,” said Geoffrey Cowley, a health department spokesman. “I don’t want to prejudge that. We’re concerned and we’re going to carefully revaluate that inspection.”

The restaurant located at Sixth Avenue and West 4th Street was investigated Thursday following complaints, but the inspector didn’t see any rats.

In addition, the same restaurant passed both of its inspections last year, although it was fined $1,300 for some violations which included mice droppings.

Now the Health Department has closed the store, and said it will remain closed until it passes re-inspection.

Which standard did it not meet?

Being done?

Think about it. The place was this overrun with rats… That didn’t happen in one day and they certainly aren’t the kind of rats that just hide when they see people. Although considering how many filthy restaurants “pass” inspection daily, I actually think this might actually meet their “standards.”
