Broken sewage line shuts two Allston restaurants

By adamg on Thu, 02/12/2015 - 4:42pm

City health inspectors shut Bibim, 166 Harvard Ave., and Hanmaru, 164 Harvard Ave. yesterday after finding their basement filled with raw sewage from the cracked pipe.

Both were ordered closed until the pipe is repaired and they clean and sterilize the basement.

Here's the real question

How long was it like that?

Perhaps

"basement filled" should give you a clue.

Both order the restaurants to remove the mold that has been growing as a result of all that moisture in the basement.

Haven't been to Bibim since the redo / renaming.

I think it's the same owners. Hanmaru, on the other hand, does a mean pork spine soup.

Maybe...

I am sure that councillor Linehan will get his boots wet helping these two businesses back on their feet - if they have "invested" in liquor licenses I am sure they've invested in him...
