Kallang eating house suspended for 1 day, fined for offences including dirty toilet
The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) suspended the licence of Yew Yi Hup Kee Eating House at 23 Kallang Avenue for one day on June 27.
The restaurant accumulated 12 demerit points within a 12-month period and was fined a total of $1,100 for failing to maintain sanitary fittings in good working condition and repair as well as failing to keep its toilet clean and in good repair.
SFA said it takes a serious view of these offences and would like to remind food business operators to observe good food and personal hygiene practices at all times.
This includes engaging only registered food handlers and ensuring upkeep and maintenance of licensed premises including the toilets within.
The agency added: "In the interest of maintaining a high standard of food hygiene at all eating establishments, we would also like to advise members of the public who come across poor food safety practices in food establishments not to patronise such outlets and provide feedback via the online feedback form or to call our SFA Contact Centre at 68052871 with details for our follow-up investigations."
