According to a report from Oriental Daily today, photos shared by netizens showed that the restaurant was ordered to close at 1pm.<\/p>\n
The notice also stated that the eatery violated certain regulations or licensing conditions for food establishments, and the authorities ordered its closure in the interest of the public.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson told Sin Chew Daily that the closure involved the placement of equipment at the eatery and not food hygiene.<\/p>\n
They said: “We have a lot of kitchen equipment, so we temporarily put it at the back, which took up some roadside space. Therefore, the authorities asked us to move everything away.”<\/p>\n
The eatery also released a statement on their Instagram and Facebook pages today.<\/p>\n
It reads: “We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused by our kitchen occupying a public space.<\/p>\n
“Following the authorities’ instructions, we will close for two days to make the necessary adjustments and resume normal operations on Wednesday, Aug 26. Thank you for your understanding.”<\/p>\n
