AT least 100 diners were struck down by a mass food poisoning outbreak after eating at a filthy Hampshire restaurant, a court heard.
A management company and one of its directors have been told to pay more than £70,000 in fines and costs after scores of customers fell victim to poor hygiene at the Real China complex in Eastleigh.
It was the biggest food poisoning outbreak the borough council had ever dealt with and resulted in several people being admitted to hospital.
Now those involved with the restaurant at the time have been hit with £70,000 in fines and costs, after what was reportedly the biggest food poisoning outbreak the borough council has ever seen.
Malcolm Gibney, prosecuting, said: “A door between the loo and the kitchen
was wedged open, a practice that was totally unacceptable.”
