FEHD orders Tsuen Wan restaurant to suspend business for 14 days
****************************************************************
The restaurant, located on the ground floor at 27 Tsuen Wan Market Street, was ordered to suspend business from today (June 11) to June 24.
"In March and April this year, two convictions for the above-mentioned breach were recorded against the restaurant. A total fine of $3,000 was levied by the court and 30 demerit points were registered against the licensee under the department's demerit points system. The contraventions resulted in the 14-day business suspension," a spokesman for the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) said.
The licensee of the restaurant had a record of two convictions for storing open food improperly in April last year and February this year. A total fine of $3,900 was levied and 15 demerit points were registered. The breaches led to business suspension for seven days between late April and early May this year.
The spokesman reminded licensees of food premises to comply with the FBR, or their licences could be suspended or cancelled.
Licensed food premises are required to exhibit a sign, at a conspicuous place near the main entrance, indicating that the premises have been licensed. A list of licensed food premises is available on the FEHD's website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/licensing/index.html).
