Diner spots roach legs twice in a cup of coffee
A Facebook post by Dunyawat Lerdanantawong became a hot issue discussed on social media in Thailand after he complained about his unexpected experience at Mo-Mo-Paradise, a shabu-shabu restaurant, at Esplanade Ratchada, on 12th March 2022.
This diner allegedly claimed that he spotted cockroach’s legs floating in his cup of coffee after he got the drink from the coffee maker. He then told the staff to check if there were cockroaches inside.

Shortly after the machine was checked, the diner alleged that roach legs were still found floating in his second cup of coffee.
“I thought the coffee maker was ready to be used since diners are allowed to order drinks as usual. But, it turned out that there were even more roach legs in my second cup of coffee”, wrote the Facebook user.

The admin also explained that cockroaches may have hid themselves in the coffee vending machine, as the restaurant had been sprayed with pesticides the day before.
Netizens express their shock at the incident
As expected, the diner’s experience quickly went viral on Facebook, garnering over 7.6K likes, drawing comments from many Facebook users.

Translation: I understand you. I once experienced something similar. I found a cockroach in a hotpot, and I reported this to the manager of the restaurant. He only changed the pot and gave me more time to eat. This happened 3-4 years ago before the Covid-19 situation when there were not many people.
Finally, one Facebook user also shared that he had experienced something similar before in the comments section.
We hope the restaurant finds a solution soon
We really hope that the restaurant owner will soon find a solution to the root cause of this problem, and ensure that all dishes and drinks are pest-free in the future.
Most of all, that eateries constantly strive to create a clean environment for diners to enjoy their food with a peace of mind.
