Barista Exposes Unsanitary Practices at Instagram-Famous Restaurant

A barista named Corey Kiser exposed alleged health code violations at the trendy Manhattan restaurant Fellini Cucina via TikTok, claiming food was prepped on garbage cans and freezers were improperly maintained. His video went viral, leading to his dismissal from the restaurant's sister café, Fellini Coffee. The New York City Department of Health is investigating the restaurant following multiple complaints. Corey claims many staff members have quit due to poor conditions, and his ex-manager is attempting to retract the firing, possibly fearing legal action.
