MILPITAS, CA — A Bay Area restaurant has temporarily closed after a viral video showed a worker breaking up meat slabs on the ground.
PhoLove closed on Thursday, according to a report by KRON4. A sign on the door read: "We're very sorry our customers, we have to close today due to an issue involving one of our employees."
It's unclear when exactly the video was posted. It appears to show someone outside slamming a rack of ribs onto multiple pieces of cardboard on the ground. Sometimes the meat bounces off the cardboard and onto the alley pavement, the video shows.
