The five establishments are an Indian restaurant and a café in Dublin, a coffee shop in Kildare, a pizzeria in Meath and a Chinese in Roscommon.

A milkshake blender with a foul odour, raw chicken left on various surfaces, and no evidence of a food safety culture were some of the reasons food businesses were told to close their doors.

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland ordered the closure of five businesses in October, with the enforcement orders issued by Environmental Health Officers in the HSE.

The five establishments are an Indian restaurant and a café in Dublin, a coffee shop in Kildare, a pizzeria in Meath and a Chinese in Roscommon.

Two Closure Orders were served under the FSAI Act, 1998 on:

Base Coffee, The Mart, Newbridge Road, Kilcullen, Kildare
Indian Spices (restaurant/café), 138 Parnell Street, Dublin 1

Two Closure Orders were served under the European Union (Official Controls in Relation to Food Legislation) Regulations, 2020 on:

Mizzoni Pizza (take away), 12 Railway Street, Navan, Meath
Seasons Chinese, Bridge Street, Strokestown, Roscommon

One Prohibition Order was served under the European Union (Official Controls in Relation to Food Legislation) Regulations 2020 on:
