A dinner among 16 colleagues at a seafood restaurant at
Marina Bay Sands ended up with 11 of them hit by food poisoning.
Two were hospitalised.
Another group of diners was also affected. Those who
came down with the symptoms had eaten raw oysters at the
award-winning restaurant, Todai, so they guessed that was the
problem.
The restaurant and health authorities were
informed.
Although the restaurant had no official confirmation
that the oysters were the cause of the food poisoning, they
reimbursed the full cost of the dinner and covered the diners'
medical expenses, including one of the hospitalisation cases. The
second hospitalisation case is pending the outcome of
investigation.
