Jerusalem Catering Hall Nabbed With Treif Meat

January 10, 2017: The YeshivaWorld:

"Inspectors of the Chief Rabbinate Kashrus Enforcement Unit working with health inspectors operating in the Talpiot area of the capital found hundreds of kilograms of tainted meat in a catering hall that was suspected of being treif. The inspection was carried out on Monday, 11 Teves, and the report states that in addition to being suspected of being treif, the meats were not stored in compliance with health regulations. It is also added the businesses advertised as being kosher but in actuality, do not have kashrus supervision from any agency."
"The hall in question is Gidi Yavan, formerly Leilot Casablanca." "The hall also uses the names Shara, Teiman and Tuamin."
"They offer catering services along with a restaurant, and take home foods, dairy and meat, advertising as kosher."
"Inspectors were acting on an intelligence tip, which panned out in this case. The district veterinary officer gave the order to destroy the meats confiscated during the operation which amount to over 350kg (771 LBS)."
