A family-run London restaurant is facing a £2.5million “proceeds of crime” penalty after installing a kitchen extraction fan against council planning rules.
Meze Mangal, an award-winning Turkish eatery in Lewisham that has been open for more than 20 years, said it spent £50,000 on the fan system in 2014 after a complaint from a neighbour about cooking smells wafting into their home.
