Little Zelda defies closure in Crown Heights
Briefly

The Little Zelda cafe in Crown Heights is under scrutiny after accumulating 27 health violations, including conditions promoting rodent infestations. Despite these severe infractions and a history of 41 violations in 2023, the cafe operates persistently, drawing crowds of customers. Eyewitnesses report the establishment removing official closure notices, attempting to reopen under misleading signs like 'closed for spring cleaning.' The paradox of the cafe's popularity amidst such alarming health concerns raises questions about customer awareness and priorities regarding hygiene standards.
A neighbor noted that patrons seem unfazed by the health violations, saying, 'Every time it's open, there are people in there, and I don't know if they're oblivious or they're diehards or they don't care about the ongoing health issues.'
The cafe continues operations despite facing 27 health violations, including conditions conducive to rodent infestations, and has repeatedly removed closure notices from the Department of Health.
