SINGAPORE: The food hygiene grades of Summer Palace restaurant and Regent Singapore’s banquet kitchen were downgraded to “C” on Monday (Jan 29) after dozens of patrons came down with food poisoning.
The National Environment Agency (NEA) said in an advisory that a total of 43 people who ate food from the establishments on Nov 11 last year had stomach flu – or gastroenteritis – symptoms.
The food hygiene grade of the establishments will be reviewed in 12 months’ time, and NEA will keep the premises under surveillance in the meantime, the authority added.
Michelin one-star Cantonese restaurant Summer Palace is located in Regent Singapore, a five-star hotel along Cuscaden Road. Both the restaurant and the hotel’s banquet kitchen previously had an “A” grading for food hygiene, according to NEA’s website.
Channel NewsAsia has reached out to Regent Singapore for comment.
