The restaurant, Prideway Hinge Kitchen, located at Shop G, and the Outside Seating Accommodation at the shop front on the ground floor of Lucky Mansion, 2 Chun Yin Square, Yuen Long, was ordered to suspend business from today (June 24) to July 7.

A total fine of $5,500 was levied by the court and 15 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 of the restaurant had a record of two convictions for extending the business area illegally in January and September last year. A total fine of $4,300 was levied and 30 demerit points were also registered, leading to a seven-day licence suspension during the period from last December to this January.
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.
Licensed food premises are required to exhibit a sign, at a conspicuous place near the main entrance, indicating that the premises has been licensed. A list of licensed food premises is available on the FEHD's website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/licensing/index.html).
