There’s plenty of good news in this week’s report but we have to start with a couple of bad inspections.
Topping this report was the new Tanjore, an Indian restaurant in Royal Palm Place. Apparently Sapphire closed and this has replaced it. Their first inspection showed 28 total violations including 3 that the inspector marked as high priority. All 3 related to improper use of bare hands or lack of hand washing. Oddly we did not see a licensing inspection.
The other big number was Boca Grove Golf & Tennis Club with 23 violations and a whopping 10 marked high priority. The membership will probably not be thrilled to see these:
- Employee handled soiled equipment or utensils and then engaged in food preparation, handled clean equipment or utensils, or touched unwrapped single-service items without washing hands. Employee handled personal cellphone and then handled bread without changing gloves or washing hands. Employee washed hands and changed gloves. **Corrected On-Site**
