SINGAPORE – The National Environment Agency (NEA) demoted the food hygiene grades of Michelin-starred Summer Palace and the Regent Singapore’s banquet kitchen from “A” grade to “C” from Monday (Jan 29), after 43 patrons were suspected of getting food poisoning from a wedding lunch at the hotel.
In an advisory issued on Monday, NEA said that the people had stomach flu symptoms after eating food at both places on Nov 11 last year.
Replying to queries from The Straits Times, a Regent Singapore spokesman said that all 43 cases were not from guests dining in Summer Palace, but instead from a lunch wedding banquet held at the hotel that day.
