The owner of a Sydney CBD noodle bar has been ordered to publish two newspaper notices owning up to six serious food breaches, which included dirty pest-ridden premises and the sale of unsafe food.

Thi Minh Nguyet Vo, owner of Hong Hai Noodle Bar in the Hunter Connection Food Court, was issued the order in the Downing Centre Local Court this week, along with a fine of $22,500 and an order to pay legal costs of more than $2300.

It was not the first prosecution for the restaurateur, who was prosecuted for 21 breaches and fined $28,000 in 2009 and 2010.
