Have you ever checked to see if your favorite restaurants were cited for health violations?

I have checked this. I was so surprised at all the restaurants that were cited for one thing or another. It's kind of scary. What do you think?

It doesn't surprise me that there are so many. I've heard about a couple of the fast food chains that had violations.

@MsBooklover They fix the violations and everything is good until the next time they come to check on them.

@just4him Isn't that the truth? They don't always learn from experience.

I agree with you. Some people who work in a restaurant think they are behind a counter, and nobody can see what they do. However, when the authorities take a look, it is all exposed.

The council in my town inspects rwstaurants, cafes and hotels and gives them a rating from 1 to 5 for hygiene. The ones that get 5 stars proudly display the certificates on the premises. The ones with the worst scores get headlines in the local paper.

I have not seen such displays here, but that would be a good idea.
