Never been there, now never will……………
Exactly!
I found a mouse poop by my house.
I guess I’ll have to move now.
You can live in as much poop as you want as long as you’re not preparing food for trusting customers
I found a live rat in the yard, chucked a stick/spear at it and it died. I guess I am a murderer now.
I will need to go there after they open back up to get a bowl of Moving Rice.
I’ll order a side of Mealy Greens with Roach Paste. All locally grown.
I believe there may be a pattern here ….
I always wondered what the extra seasoning was at that place…
BFF Out!
I think you may have the wrong name – the restaurant at 41 Woodsworth Lane is Sichuan Fortune House. China Lounge is in Pleasanton. I am assuming Sichuan Fortune House is the correct one – very unfortunate, as they once were featured on Check Please and had excellent food at one time! Is there a way to verify which one is correct?
Interestingly enough, they line up options #1 & 2 on Yelp when you put in “China Lounge.” I wonder if they share an owner? China Lounge is definitely in Pleasanton, but that would be Alameda County overseeing the health department for it.
I think you’re right. I think it’s Sichuan Fortune House, which is at 41 Woodsworth lane. I think they share owners with China Loungebdcayse that’s what it says on their menus.
I believe that there was an exterminator who recently posted on one of these reports that the problem has been exacerbated by drought conditions making critters more aggressive in seeking out food.
That said according to these reports I must live in a very safe restaurant area here in Martinez. I think in the last couple years of searching through these I found only one Martinez restaurant listed. That despite a friend who lives next to a popular Martinez restaurant saying he daily sees rats overrunning the garbage bins behind the place.
China Lounge was a shell name. Get with it!
The loose reputation & just change the name outside.
Geesh!
I have lived in Concord for 25 years and have never seen a cockroach. Now in SF iv seen huge ones
