Jay Z's 40/40 clubs are one of the dopest upscale sports clubs in NY. Great layouts, memorabilia, plenty of big screens, fly ass furniture and just the overall dope environment. The food is a little spendy but it's totally worth it. However, the management decided to shut down and remodel. In fact, the grand re-opening was pushed back to a month after it was there trying to get in LMAO. After recent reports I'm glad it was. According to the NY Post just 24 hrs after their re-opening the health board shut down the restaurant for several violations. Some of the infractions listed were food wasn't properly refrigerated, hot food wasn't kept heated to the correct temperature and employees were allowed to prepare food without hairnets and gloves. Ron Berkowitz, spokesman for the 40/40, told TMZ that there weren't many violations. The problems were the result of a blown refrigerator motor. He claims the problem has been rectified and the club is back to business. Word on the curb though is that before the club closed they were cited for 39 violations. Sounds like a bigger problem than just a blown refrigerator motor.
