Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) has issued a decision to administratively close Koukab Zuhal Restaurant in Mussafah Industrial City (M\/37) in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>The establishment, holding trade license number CN-1057282, has been found in violation of Law No. (2) of 2008 regarding food, with its practices found to pose a significant risk to public health.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"PA_mid-article\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"cacher\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<h3><a

class=\"cacher\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>ADAFSA clarified that the food control report indicated that the administrative closure decision against the establishment was due to its violation of food safety regulations. This was specifically because of repeated high-risk violations that directly impact food safety, along with the establishment\u2019s failure to take effective corrective actions to address these violations.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>Three violations were issued and a warning of administrative closure was given to the establishment. The violations included inadequate separation of sinks during use, improper storage, lack of temperature records for refrigerators and freezers, and uncovered ready-to-eat food .<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>The authority also affirmed that the closure decision will remain in effect as long as its causes exist. The establishment may resume operations after rectifying its situation and fulfilling all the necessary requirements.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"adv \">\n<div id=\"gulfnews_uae_article_1\" data-gpt=\"Gulfnews_Article\/gulfnews_uae_article\/gulfnews_uae_article_1\" data-atf=\"0\" data-size=\"[320,50]\" data-size-mapping=\"[ [ [ 1024, 500 ], [ [300,100], [300,250], [710,250], [710,400], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [ 768, 420], [ [300,100], [300,250], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [640, 320], [ [300,250], [300,100], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [0, 0], [ [300,250], [300,100], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ] ]\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>In addition, ADAFSA highlighted that the closure and the identification of observed violations are part of ongoing inspection efforts to strengthen the food safety system in Abu Dhabi. All types of establishments and food products are subject to periodic inspections by ADAFSA\u2019s inspectors to guarantee compliance with the highest food safety standards.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>The authority also encourages the public to report any violations detected in any food establishment by calling the toll-free number for the Abu Dhabi Government, 800555.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"article-nl-wrap\" list=\"211\" title=\"Sign up for the Daily Briefing\" byline=\"Get the latest news and updates straight to your inbox.\">\n    <\/div>\n<div class=\"adv \">\n<div id=\"gulfnews_uae_textad\" data-gpt=\"Gulfnews_TextAd\/gulfnews_uae_textad\" data-atf=\"0\" data-size=\"[320,50]\" data-size-mapping=\"[ [ [ 1024, 500 ], [ [300,250] ] ],[ [ 768, 420], [ [728,90] ] ],[ [640, 320], [ [320,50], [300,250] ] ],[ [0, 0], [ [320,50], [300,250] ] ] ]\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"more-from-article uae pb-md-2\">\n<div class=\"section-header\">\n<h3 class=\"h5 text-uppercase\">More From Crime<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-sm-12 col-md-3 \">\n<div class=\"card  \">\n<div class=\"img-wrapper \">\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/gulfnews.com\/uae\/crime\/37-pedestrians-fined-dh400-each-in-dubais-naif-area-1.104370361\"><br \/>\n               <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.gulfnews.com\/images\/spacer.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/imagevars.gulfnews.com\/2024\/10\/14\/Ped_192896f230a_small.jpg\" alt=\"Ped\" class=\"lazy card-img-top card-img img-loaded\"><br \/>\n    <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<h2 class=\"card-title\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/gulfnews.com\/uae\/crime\/37-pedestrians-fined-dh400-each-in-dubais-naif-area-1.104370361\">37 pedestrians fined Dh400 each in Dubai\u2019s Naif area<\/a><br \/>\n        <\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-sm-12 col-md-3 divider-sm-left divider-sm-right\">\n<div class=\"card  \">\n<div class=\"img-wrapper \">\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/gulfnews.com\/uae\/crime\/dubai-mall-incident-shows-how-keeping-others-lost-items-is-a-crime-1.104345152\"><br \/>\n               <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.gulfnews.com\/images\/spacer.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/imagevars.gulfnews.com\/2024\/10\/13\/lost-gold-bracelet-1728797849517_1928461b7c6_small.jpg\" alt=\"lost-gold-bracelet-1728797849517\" class=\"lazy card-img-top card-img img-loaded\"><br \/>\n    <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<div class=\"tag-container live\">\n             <span class=\"tag text-uppercase\">Special Report<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n<h2 class=\"card-title\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/gulfnews.com\/uae\/crime\/dubai-mall-incident-shows-how-keeping-others-lost-items-is-a-crime-1.104345152\">UAE mall incident: Keeping others&#8217;
