By that evening, Kinsho Sushi issued a formal apology, confirming that the incident occurred at 4:26 PM and had caused "great unease and panic" for their guests. In a swift response, the management immediately reviewed surveillance footage and began coordinating with professional pest control services. As an immediate safety measure, the restaurant discarded every ingredient in the kitchen and provided free meals to all customers dining at the time before carefully evacuating the premises.
The Binjiang Powerlong Plaza branch has now suspended operations indefinitely to undergo a comprehensive deep cleaning and disinfection process. According to a statement from the company, a third-party pest control report identified the intruder as a yellow-breasted rat. Initial findings suggest the animal likely entered the shop from a mall corridor rather than being bred within the restaurant itself, especially since the store's previous pest control records had shown no signs of rodent activity.
To ensure full transparency, the restaurant has reached out to local market supervision departments, providing them with the necessary video evidence and a full account of the event. The company emphasized that protecting food safety is a "bottom line that must never be crossed" and promised to keep the public updated on their rectification progress and final disinfection results.
