A food poisoning cluster has left at least 10 people sick at a well-known Italian restaurant chain in New Taipei. The branch in question is the outlet on the 4th floor of Honhui Plaza in Xinzhuang District. A family of three who dined at the restaurant on Jan. 29 reported vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms the following day. Hospital tests point to a potential salmonella infection, which may have been caused by contaminated food. Let’s hear from a company representative and a doctor.

Voice of Chiu Hsiao-chun
Restaurant marketing manager
We are deeply concerned about this incident and we offer our sincere apologies to our customers. We are cooperating with the relevant authorities to investigate and clarify the cause.

Wu Ping-hsiu
Gastroenterologist
Most salmonella infections are caused by improper food storage. It is a disease that can be transmitted via the fecal-oral route, and poor hygiene and unclean environment can increase the risk of infection. Close attention should also be paid to other foodborne pathogens such as norovirus.

The restaurant was closed for a full day for a thorough cleaning and disinfection. New Taipei’s health bureau has dispatched a team to the restaurant to carry out inspection work. If standards are not met in a second inspection in the future, the restaurant could be fined up to NT$200 million.
