On November 8th, a restaurant here in NYC revealed the worlds most expensive dessert, a $25,000 choclate something or other. Media coverage, to say the least, was extnesive.

Well, there’s new information out on the restaurant today:

The New York City Health Department has closed the famous Upper East Side Serendipity Three restaurant.
The restaurant is on 60th Street between Third and Second Avenues.
A notice in the window of the gated establishment alerts patrons of the closure.
Serendipity 3′s popularity has soared with tourists since it’s been featured in several movies.
The small restaurant can often have an hours-long wait for people wanting to try its frozen drinks or foot-long hot dogs.
The health department would not comment about the closure on Wednesday night.
The blog eater.com reports that the Department of Health found “a live mouse, mouse droppings in multiple areas of the restaurant, fruit flies, house flies, and over 100 live cockroaches.”

Great job media! Thanks to you, many more people may have eaten mouse droppings.
