Fuego General Manager David Girela said the restaurant will be closed for “deep cleaning” and will reopen no later than 11 a.m. Saturday.

Among the changes implemented overnight will be the use of liquid eggs instead of whole, fresh eggs, which are believed to be the source of the food-borne illness, Girela said.

“We appreciate our customers and want to make it right for our customers,” he added.

Health department officials said they're working closely with Fuego’s Restaurant to find the source of bacteria, as well as figure out how to prevent recurrence.

"Fuego’s Restaurant’s management has been cooperative during this investigation, and has closed voluntarily today, when they received the news about the lab samples. This is a good time to stress the importance of food safety, proper temperature ranges, and adequate gloves and hand hygiene for everyone preparing food this holiday weekend."

A press conference is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday for the media to talk about the situation with health officials.
