FEHD orders restaurant in Tsuen Wan to suspend business for 14 days
*******************************************************************
The restaurant, located on the ground floor of the Front Block and Middle Block at 28 Sam Pei Square, Tsuen Wan, was ordered to suspend business from today (October 3) to October 16.
"In April and May this year, two convictions for the above-mentioned breach were recorded against the licensee of the restaurant. A total fine of $7,500 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 of the restaurant had a record of two convictions for the same offence in June and October last year. A total fine of $3,500 was levied and 30 demerit points were registered. The breaches led to licence suspension for seven days in December last 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).
