Closure orders as seven food businesses breach legislation

Seven food businesses, among them an award-winning cake stall in Cork’s English Market, were served with closure orders last month for various breaches of food safety legislation.

Yesterday, the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) published details of the affected businesses — including restaurants and cinema takeaways — which were served with the orders issued by environmental health officers in the HSE pursuant to the FSAI Act, 1998 and the EC (Official Control of Foodstuffs) Regulations, 2010.

Three of the closure orders were served under the FSAI Act 1998 on the Sur La Mer restaurant on Station Rd, Rosslare Strand in Co Wexford, on the Monsoon Valley restaurant in the Retail Park, Bundoran, Co Donegal, and on The Swiss Cottage Kitchen restaurant on the Swords Rd in Santry, Dublin 9.
