Harmful prank orders force changes at Asian restaurant in Clifton Heights

CINCINNATI (FOX19) – A Clifton Heights restaurant specializing in Asian food and bubble tea says they’ve lost hundreds of dollars in the last week alone on prank orders.
Yvonne Chew and her family hav run Tea ’n’ Bowl, on West McMillan Street since 2013. Chew says they’re no stranger to fake orders, but the recent uptick has been troubling.
A Facebook post detailing a particularly large prank order went viral across the city late Sunday.
“These people just call to Asian restaurants to make huge fake order and not picked up,” the post reads in part. “When you call back on the number shown on the caller ID and they laugh and said that they never order and it was a wrong number. One of them, even tell me that they don’t eat dogs.

MEDIA - A Clifton Heights couple want to pursue the Wilson s Secret Sauce restaurant of Upper Darby in the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas after the husband was injured on the premises, according to a March 24 lawsuit.
Plaintiff Brian MacQueen visited the restaurant, owned by Secret Sauce LLC and Steven and Kelly Wilson, on December 7, 2019. While there, the plaintiff says he leaned against a railing that he did not know was broken or defective.
MacQueen fell through the railing when it collapsed to the floor below; he sustained serious and permanent injuries to his elbow, knee, wrist and back, the suit claims.

MEDIAÂ â Thirteen illegal gambling machines were removed from two mini-marts in East Lansdowne and Clifton Heights following an undercover investigation in November, Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer announced Wednesday.
âUnauthorized gaming machines have proliferated in convenience stores, pizza parlors, and laundromats throughout the commonwealth,â Stollsteimer said in a release. âDue to inaction in Harrisburg, these devices are currently unregulated, with no oversight to determine if the machines are operating fairly and no prohibition on minors playing the games. As district attorney, I am committed to supporting law enforcement in its effort to protect Pennsylvanians from the harms associated with illegal gambling.â
