The restaurant, located at Shop C5 on the ground floor of 353-357 Un Chau Street, was ordered to suspend business from today (April 4) to April 17.
"Two convictions for the above-mentioned breach were recorded against the restaurant licensee in last November and January this year. A total fine of $5,300 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 licence suspension," a spokesman for the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) said.
The licensee concerned had a record of two convictions for the same offence in August and October last year. A total fine of $4,600 was levied and 30 demerit points were also registered, leading to a seven-day licence suspension this February.
The spokesman reminded the licensees of food premises to comply with the FBR and other relevant regulations, or their licences could be suspended or cancelled.
