Rat Faeces, Live Cockroaches Found During Food Safety Raids in Shahi Dastarkhan, Other Restaurants in Hyderabad (See Pics)
Food safety raids in Hyderabad’s Lakdikapul area exposed severe hygiene violations in popular restaurants, including Shahi Dastarkhan and Khan-E-Khaas. Issues included rat feces, live cockroach infestations, expired food, and unhygienic kitchens. Officials warned operators to comply or face penalties.
Food safety officials conducted raids in Hyderabad’s Lakdikapul area, uncovering severe hygiene violations in several popular restaurants, including Shahi Dastarkhan, Khan-E-Khaas, and Bademiyan Kebab. At Khan-E-Khaas, the restaurant was found operating without a valid FSSAI license. Inspectors discovered leftover food from the previous day, unhygienic refrigerators storing both veg and non-veg items together, and rat faeces on raw food shelves. The kitchen lacked pest-proofing, had broken tiles, water stagnation, and inadequate space for cleaning. At Bademiyan Kebab, officials noted cobwebs in the kitchen, improperly labeled food in the refrigerator, and suspected use of synthetic food colors in kebabs and Chinese dishes. The premises lacked pest control records, fitness certificates for food handlers, and insect-proofing. At Shahi Dastarkhan, officials found greasy walls, ceilings shedding particles, and live cockroach infestations in the kitchen. Expired items like Mango Masala, Coconut Milk, and Keora Water were discarded on the spot. Stagnant drain water caused by food waste further worsened conditions. The raids highlight alarming lapses in food safety, with officials discarding hazardous items and warning restaurant operators to meet standards or face penalties.
