Amy figures we ate at this place last year.
At least 20 people are believed to have been hospitalised after eating at Broadbeach cafe Grocer and Grind.
The venue’s head chef is reportedly among those admitted to hospital.
Some of those affected reported eating eggs benedict on Saturday morning and were admitted that evening with severe diarrhoea requiring several days in hospital.
Gold Coast Health has today confirmed the public health unit is investigating the possible source but at this stage have not publicly named the eatery involved.
But Grocer and Grind manager Martin Krolovic confirmed the cafe’s head chef had been hospitalised and had only just been discharged.
“The owners are on there way here to sort this out with out head chef who has only just got out of hospital,” he said.
“I don’t know any more than that.”
