Taco Bell/KFC is receiving more unwanted attention as a New York restaurant becomes the thing of You Tube legend, thanks to an influx of rats that have apparently taken over the Greenwich Village eatery.
The chain closed the outlet today after the rat problem was discovered, while New York news services flocked to the windows to film the rodents flying around the abandoned restaurant. Part of the problem seems to be associated with construction taking place in the basement of the building the restaurant is located in, causing the rats to move above ground and finding that Tacos and chicken might be to their liking.
The New York Health Board had previously toured the building in December and noted that there was “evidence of rats”, which was determined at the time to suggest the appearance of rat droppings, but not the visual evidence of a colony taking over the building.
The chain vows to not reopen the business until the problem is solved and the rats eliminated. What will be interesting to see is if the regular patrons return after having seen their competitors cavorting on the tables and counters.
