​The Director of Food and Environmental Hygiene has ordered a general restaurant in Mong Kok to suspend business for 21 days, as the licensee repeatedly breached the Food Business Regulation (FBR) by extending the business area illegally.

     The restaurant, located at Shop B, C and D on the ground floor of Skyline Tower on 18 Tong Mi Road, was ordered to suspend business from today (September 14) to October 4.

     "Four convictions for the above-mentioned breaches were recorded against the restaurant licensee between March 2019 and May this year. A total fine of $13,500 was levied by the court, and 80 demerit points were registered against the licensee under the department's demerit points system. The contraventions resulted in a seven-day and a 14-day business suspension to be executed consecutively," a spokesman for the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) said.

     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 their licence and a sign at a conspicuous place of the premises, indicating that the premises has been licensed. A list of licensed food premises is available on the FEHD website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/licensing/licence-foodPremises-search.html).
