The Empire Eats Group, which owns eight brands of restaurants and bars including Standing Sushi Bar, Tanuki Raw and The Secret Mermaid, had guests who did not understand the requirements, and even some who tried to hoodwink their staff.
"We encountered some people thinking they can dine-in while unvaccinated if they are in a group of two; we also had a small number of people who presented fake certificates or insisted they're fully vaccinated before the 14-day milestone," said the group's director, Mr Howard Lo.
Both cases occurred at the Odeon Towers branch of Standing Sushi Bar.
One used a doctored HealthHub printout paired with a vaccination card that belonged to a person of a different name. Another was a group of five diners, one of whom later gave the restaurant a fake negative review online.
"When caught, they left willingly, but they were unhappy," said Mr Lo.
