Downgrading of food shop licensed to Shangri-la Hotel Limited, located at Shangri-la Singapore (22 Orange Grove Road, Singapore 258350), due to food poisoning Incident.

 

Ten persons were reported to have developed gastroenteritis symptoms after consuming food prepared by The Line Restaurant located at Shangri-La Hotel (22 Orange Grove Road, Singapore 258350) on 26 December 2022. Two of them were hospitalised.

 

A joint investigation by the Ministry of Health and the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) was conducted following the incident. No hygiene lapses were identified during the inspection of the food shop on 30 December 2022. However, SFA will be taking enforcement action against the licensee for selling unclean food.

 

SFA has adjusted the food shop’s food hygiene grade from “A” to “C” with effect from 8 September 2023, to be reviewed in 12 months. The premises will also be kept under surveillance.

 

Food business operators are reminded to adhere to good food safety processes. Good hygiene practices such as the washing of hands before handling food can greatly reduce the incidence of gastroenteritis when adopted by all key stakeholders, including the industry and public.
