JAY-Z 40/40 CLUB CLOSED DOWN???

Jay-Z‘s 40/40 Club in New York City was shut down following a health code inspection that uncovered a slew of violations.

The violations, listed below and first reported by the NY Post, range from hot food being left out on the counter … to a refrigerator being kept at 60° rather than the required 41° … to a worker seen mixing salsa with his bare hands. 

The club was scored 69 violation points, according to New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene’s website. A score of 28 or higher results in the dreaded C grade.

According to the paper, the club was closed Thursday night and new patrons were not allowed in — the ones already inside were allowed to stay.

The Department of Health’s website lists the restaurant as “closed by Health Dept.” … but the NY Post says it was open for business last night.
