Colchester: Gas failure closes eaterie

A gas failure at a Chinese restaurant in Colchester has resulted in it being closed for refurbishments.

Temptations, in Balkerne Hill, closed over the Easter weekend with the management leaving a note on the door saying it had been closed temporarily due to a gas failure.

A spokesman for its sister restaurant Temptations, in Ipswich, said the problem had necessitated refurbishments to the kitchen, which would take about three weeks.

This is the same restaurant that was raided a few months ago as most of their workers were illegals. Gas failure? My ****.
