#SHOWBIZ: Mat Yeung's new SS2 restaurant ordered shut 10 days after opening

KUALA LUMPUR: Just ten days after celebrating its grand opening, Hong Kong actor Mat Yeung’s new roast meat eatery in Petaling Jaya has been hit with a temporary closure order by the local city council over premises-related breaches.

#SHOWBIZ: Mat Yeung's new SS2 restaurant ordered shut 10 days after opening

On August 24, the Hong Kong actor Mat Yeung's newly opened roast meat restaurant in Petaling Jaya, Six Hub Roast House, was ordered to temporarily close just ten days after its grand opening. The local city council imposed the closure due to premises-related breaches discovered during an inspection following public complaints. Authorities found that various establishments were using the back alley for food preparation, dishwashing, and equipment storage, prompting the yellow tape and closure notices seen around the restaurant.

In a social media post, the management expressed regret for the inconvenience caused by occupying a public space with their kitchen. They clarified that the issue was related to equipment placement rather than food hygiene. The restaurant announced that it would close for two days to rectify the layout, resuming operations on August 26.

The 45-year-old TVB star explained that the post-opening rush had led to overflow in their storage space, causing some items to be placed at the back. However, the authorities deemed this placement as not allowed and requested the removal of everything back to the warehouse. Mat Yeung stated that they should be able to resume business the day after tomorrow.

This setback comes during a busy month for Yeung in Malaysia, who recently married his long-time partner, Malaysian model Lisa Chng, in a lavish ceremony in Kuala Lumpur on August 2.
