Restaurant Loses Liquor License for Serving a Minor

An Indian restaurant in Kelowna, British Columbia, has had its alcohol license suspended for 10 days. Taaz Indian Restaurant's license will be inactive starting April 8, 2026, following a violation of liquor laws. The suspension stems from an incident in November 2025 when a "minor agent" was served a beer without proper identification.

The restaurant operators admitted to breaking provincial liquor rules, leading to the license suspension. This enforcement action is part of a broader crackdown on establishments disregarding regulations. In a separate case within the same week, a Caribbean food supply shop was fined $11,000 for allowing alcohol to be taken outside its designated service areas.
