CAFE BELGIQUE ISSUED WITH FOOD WARNING

Epping’s Belgique Café located in High Street has received an official food safety management warning from Epping Forest District Council’s environmental health officers this week, after an inspection found that shrimps, cheese and ham were all out of date, in one case, by more than a month.

At a hearing at Harlow Magistrates’ Court, the food was ordered to be condemned and destroyed, with the café chain told to pay costs.

A Council spokesman said: "Two hygiene and improvement notices have been issued to Belgique on ‘food management safety’ and ‘staff training’. They have 14 days to comply with the notices and failure to do so could lead to prosecution."
