Toronto Ethiopian restaurant shut down by health inspectors due to pests

The restaurant was shut down temporarily on August 29th after an inspection by Public Health which uncovered a number of infractions.

They received one crucial infraction for insects, and three significant ones, one again for pests and two others for failing to provide single service towels or a dryer and failing to maintain handwashing stations.
