Bamboo briyani stall’s kitchen shut down


GEORGE TOWN: A kitchen in Batu Uban used by a popular bamboo briyani stall here has been ordered to close for two weeks after failing to comply with basic hygiene and health standards.

It was shut under Section 11 of the Food Act after Penang Health Department and Penang Island City Council (MBPP) inspectors found cockroaches in the rice cookers, mould on its bamboo cups and cooked food in uncovered containers placed next to open windows.
