Another restaurant was shut down by the Kern County Public Health Department Tuesday, the third restaurant in the last few weeks.

Shangri-La Asian Bistro & Bar, located near Ming Ave. and Ashe Road, was closed by the health department after receiving a 65% inspection score, according to the Safe Diner app.

Violations include a severe cockroach infestation observed in the food prep area, as well as build-up of grease on the exhaust hood, the health department said.

There was also no valid food safety certification person on the premise, according to the health department.
