Authorities in the UAE capital have ordered the closure of a restaurant in Al Ain for violating food safety guidelines.

Taking to their official social media handles, the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) said inspections at the Hollowmeat restaurant showed serious food safety violations.
