Guests eating a meal at a Chinese wedding banquet were shocked to discover a dead mouse in a shared dish of braised beef being served at their table on Sunday, mainland media reports.

The large black rodent was lying in a large bowl of beef chilli at the banquet in the city of Chongqing, the Chongqing Evening News reports.

A photograph taken by one of the guests showed the body of the black mouse lying on top of the food, with some of the ingredients stuck to the dead rodent’s fur.

The guests immediately filed a complaint to the district’s food safety regulators and all the guests, having lost their appetite, left their tables and abandoned the banquet.

The report did not provide further details about the newly-weds, or how many people had attended the wedding.

Investigators from the district’s food and drug administration said the meal had been prepared by kitchen staff at a restaurant the day before the banquet, but the container with the braised beef had not been covered.

They said they suspected that the rodent had died after falling into the dish while trying to eat the food.

The restaurant’s owner could not be reached for comment.

More likely the poor mouse died after eating the stew?

Or the server did not even know the mouse should not be in the dish as mouse stew is so normal. If is uncommon, the Chef would had just scoop the mouse out and no one will know any better what went, literary, into making of the stew!

NEA suspends Marina Square restaurant after diners find dead rat in salted vegetables
NEA suspends Marina Square restaurant after diners find dead rat in salted vegetables

The National Environment Agency (NEA) is investigating a Chinese buffet restaurant at Marina Square after pictures of a rat in one of its dishes surfaced online.

NEA has clarified that while it conducts its inspections, the restaurant, Hot Pot Culture, is suspended by the authority. Customer Caron Chan, who was having lunch at restaurant, spotted a rat carcass floating in a dish of salted vegetables.

The customer and her group of friends were there to have the porridge buffet. Ms Chan uploaded pictures of her horrific find on Facebook and it drew dozens of comments. After spotting the dead rat in the dish, she alert the restaurant staff who replaced the tray.

"The staff looked shocked after seeing the rat," Ms Chan told Stomp. "I am not sure if manager was aware of what happened at that time," she added. The buffet resumed after the dish was replaced.

According to Ms Chan, some customers of the restaurant had consumed the vegetables even before she spotted it. Ms Chan also said there was a commotion between some customers and the restaurant's staff.

"The staff should have stopped the buffet line," said Ms Chan. While Ms Chan and her friends did not end up paying for their meal, others still had to even when they refused to after learning about the rat in dish.

Ms Chan said that she reported the restaurant to NEA, and NEA officers were down on the scene by the evening.

When The Straits Times contacted Hot Pot Culture, the supervisor denied the incident and said it was a mistake of a customer.

"They made a mistake. It's just vegetables that looked like something else. There was no rat body," the supervisor told ST in Mandarin. The supervisor refused to comment further on the incident.

Here is NEA's official statement in full:

"The National Environment Authority (NEA) has been alerted to the incident at Hotpot Culture Restaurants Pte Ltd, located at Marina Square Shopping Mall (#04-101/102).

"The restaurant has been instructed to suspend its operations immediately while NEA conducts its investigations."

Also of PAP mindset. Did the Ah Tiongs followed PAP or PAP followed the Ah Tiongs?

A wedding banquet that ended early. Very rare.

A wedding banquet that ended early. Very rare.

in sg, a wedding banquet that starts on time is very rare.

in sg, a wedding banquet that starts on time is very rare.

There was a period in SG history that wedding dinners started on time (on the dot and as stated in invitation cards) and ended before desserts were served.

That was in the 1970s when the long-running Hong Kong serial Man-in-the-Net starring Chow Yeun Fatt and Carol Cheng and all those veterans, were on TV between 9pm to 11pm on Saturdays and Sunday's only. All wanted to be home in front of the TV to catch the serial.

Yes. Those were bygones era.

Today, they come up with Mouse-in-the-Soup reality show.

Maybe the chef was trying to fake pork or chicken by passing it as mouse food.
