The management of a restaurant in Kilpauk has been fined ₹12,500 by a magistrate for selling unsafe food product.

Food safety officials had taken samples of 'Chicken 65' dish from the restaurant for analysis. The results showed that there were additives in the dish, which were found unsafe for consumption.

According to the prosecution, in July 2018, food safety department officials had inspected the premises of Hotel Paramount in Kilpauk. During inspection, officials noted that the management had not maintained the purchase and sale particulars of food articles. On apprehension over the appearance of ‘Chicken 65’, food safety department took samples of the food items from the restaurant.

The same was sent to an analyst in Tanjore, who reported that the food is unsafe. “Till date, the management has not challenged analysis report,” the prosecution submitted.
