Restaurant owner with Michelin star faces jail over ants in desserts
South Korean prosecutors are seeking a one‑year prison sentence and a fine for the owner of a two‑Michelin‑star restaurant accused of using imported ants on several dishes over four years. Food safety officials found images showing ant‑topped desserts and reported that the insects contained unusually high levels of heavy metals. The owner admitted using ants only as optional garnish and said many diners chose alternatives. The case involves imported ants from the United States and Thailand, and a verdict is expected on September 2.
