Abu Dhabi authorities have asked another restaurant to shut down for posing a "significant risk to public health".

Located in New Shahamah of Abu Dhabi, the restaurant has been found in violation of Law No. (2) of 2008 regarding food in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and its associated legislation.

The Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority has decided to administratively close Kohinoor restaurant, holding trade license number CN- 1080144, the authority said on Thursday, April 10.

The authority conducts regular checks of eateries and restaurants in the emirate, often shutting down places that are not operating up to local standards or violating food-related health and safety laws.
