According to the FDA officials, their team found close to seven violations that led to the notice being issued. “During our team’s visit, we found expired food products in the restaurant. We also found synthetic food colour, and there is a high chance that the colour was used for food preparation,” said Shailesh Adhao, FDA Joint Commissioner (Food). FDA said the restaurant had no proper segregation of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food, resulting in possible cross-contamination. “They also did not have water analysis reports from NABL-accredited laboratories. There were no medical fitness records of its employees either,” said Adhao.
However, the restaurant remained open even after the FDA issued a stop-work notice on Tuesday. Shubham Pandey, manager, Burn-Bar & Kitchen, said they have not received any FDA notice. “There was no FDA inspection and no stop work notice served to us,” Pandey said.
