A Yarmouth caf� was closed just before the Easter holiday when its unhygienic state was deemed to be a public health hazard.
Environmental health officers from Yarmouth Borough Council undertaking a routine inspection on April 8 were so shocked by conditions in the Tudor Caf� and takeaway, in St Peter's Road, that they took steps to close it immediately.
The caf�'s owner, Joaguim Galanthe, of Lichfield Road, Southtown, was informed by the officers that the premises were being closed.
On April 9, Yarmouth Magistrates' Court confirmed the hygiene emergency prohibition order.

"These problems included contamination by raw meat blood."
