A restaurant has been ordered to pay more than £14,000 after its `very poor' cleanliness standards infected 12 people with salmonella.Environmental health officers visited Fu's restaurant on Manchester Road, Mossley, and found cooked duck stored in cardboard boxes where raw poultry had been, dirty chopping boards and no cleaning or drying equipment for the hand basin near the staff toilets.The swoop followed complaints that people were suffering from food poisoning after eating at the restaurant.Directors of the Cantonese restaurant pleaded guilty to eight offences under food hygiene laws at Tameside magistrates' court.The incident came to light in June 2006 after eight people who dined at the restaurant suffered food poisoning and contacted Tameside Council environmental health department. Eventually, 12 complaints of salmonella were reported.A major shareholder said he didn't ensure staff had sufficient hygiene training because he had been trading 22 years without a problem. Environmental health officers gave managers lengthy advice and revisited the next day. Concerns remained and further swabs identified salmonella.The restaurant was closed down by way of an emergency prohibition. A specialist cleaning firm carried out a `deep clean' and the premises were allowed to re-open in September when there was deemed to be no more risk.Defending, Stephen Krebbs asked magistrates to take into account the director's early guilty pleas.He said: "At the time, Fu's was a busy and popular restaurant and there hadn't been any issues at all with the public in the time it was trading in Mossley."Sadly, there was this outbreak and it seems to have culminated in the loss of the manager. "It was a very busy restaurant and obviously procedures were not maintained at that time."He said although the restaurant tried to reopen, complying to all the regulations, it was `never the same again' and is now in the process of being deregistered.Fu's was fined £8,000 and made to pay costs of £6,763.

The dirrrty bastards.
Liam stop making a fool of yourself they have told me you are not going back you can not behave and they said its just a matter of time before you get sued for some of your comments, having seen some of them they are right ,get some proper legal advice quick I know the case against you is being prepared. no more favour for you now this is the last.
John, you are a fucking mentalist.
Quote: John Taylor
"On Boxing day we saw the Tories out again breaking the law Fox Hunting, ok for them to break the law but not us, many Tory MPs agree with this law breaking and the Tories have pledged to repeal the ban if the get in again.
We need to hunt the fox they say its for their own good what they fail to say is that they enjoy the kill and thats what its all about,
Kill killl kill"
Must try harder!
Are your comments something to do with the letter I sent about you to the Tameside Advertiser and Reporter? Not nice is it?
I know the Advertiser did not publish the letter, but I have yet to see the reporter. I know what goes on with the editors passing on letters to councillors.
And John, I am keeping screenshots of that website. Before you start complaining about what bollocks you have put on your homepage to John Bell or Richard Ashton saying I have said nasty things about you, remember I have the screenshots you dumb ass.
People are watching you. You are not going to get that leader position are you?
Go and rim Uncle Roy's bum hole to get in the cabinet. We all know you got in their because you moaned your way to the top. Your a deluded moron. Each year you are shuffled on and off the cabinet. Doesn't that tell you something?
We also hear that a few cats and dogs have gone missing in the area.
We have three Ward Councillors, all Labour, and have held the seat for Labour now for 30 years without loss. (no bnp fascist /racist have been elected in Tameside)
No John, but it looks very likely over the next three years that the BNP will actually make gains on lazy Labour councillors like yourself.
Liam can I take you and the BNP membership to this restaurant in Mossley the meals on me I am on a diet and cant eat just yet liquids only for me you will enjoy.
I shall leave the bum rush to you John.
Coming soon on here my admiration for JOHN BELL his leadership qualities and his ability to deal with man management (does not suffer fools at all )
Local fascist have had their hands slapped from central office and told to remove the anti Semitic material from the bnp blog we have in Tameside anyone reading the stuff they put on will now understand what we are dealing with .
John, please stop copying and pasting stuff from your website. Why don't you create a blog yourself? Remember a blog allows you to respond through comments - unmoderated.
Not me doing it Liam one of your crew, dont know how to do it, send me instructions.
