The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) has suspended the food business operation of NS Catering Services Pte Ltd (located at 3015 Bedok North Street 5 #02-02, Shimei East Kitchen Singapore 486350), with effect from 20 May 2024 until further notice.
2 On 20 May 2024, during an inspection at the said premises, non-compliances such as severe pest infestation (live cockroaches), dirty kitchen floor, and dirty exhaust filters were observed.
3 In the interest of public health, SFA directed the licensee to rectify the lapses and take necessary measures to improve the food safety practices and the cleanliness of its premises.
4 Food safety is a joint responsibility as food can be contaminated anywhere along the food chain. While SFA continues to be vigilant and works to ensure that regulatory measures are in place and properly enforced, the industry and consumers must also play their part.
5 All food operators should ensure that their premises are clean and well-maintained, and staff are adequately trained on proper food safety management. SFA will take enforcement action against food operators who do not adhere to regulations or comply with food hygiene and food safety requirements. Offenders are liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $5,000 for each offence.
6 Members of the public who come across poor hygiene practices in food establishments are advised not to patronise them and provide feedback via our online feedback form (www.sfa.gov.sg/feedback) with details for our follow-up investigations.
