Foodies in Johnson City shut down by Health Department
JOHNSON CITY, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A new restaurant in Johnson City has been shut down by the health department.
Foodies Restaurant, located on Reynolds Road in the same building as Mooney's, has a notice of closure taped to its front door dated April 15th.
There is also a hand-written note on the door from owner Hassan Wraich indicating that the restaurant will be reopening soon, once it is inspected by the health department.
Director of Environmental Health at the Broome County Health Department Joshua Phelps tells News 34 that Foodies did not pass its initial pre-operational inspection and began serving food without a permit, prompting the closure.
According to social media postings, Wraich is a recent immigrant from Germany who plans to offer a variety of dishes, including German fare, Halal dishes, pizza and more.
