Japanese Problems in Parkland: Restaurant Inspections

A Japanese restaurant in Parkland had the most violations last week, and we cover 16 other inspections in our latest report.

Japango on 441 in Parkland tops this weeks report with 15 violations including 5 marked high priority including a stop sale order on bean sprouts:

  • Dishmachine chlorine sanitizer not at proper minimum strength. Discontinue use of dishmachine for sanitizing and set up manual sanitization until dishmachine is repaired and sanitizing properly. After 3 attempts Dishwasher (Chlorine 0 ppm) – Operator contacted technician. Technician arrived during inspection corrected to 50ppm. **Corrected On-Site**
  • Potentially hazardous (time/temperature control for safety) food cold held at greater than 41 degrees Fahrenheit. Potentially hazardous (time/temperature control for safety) food cold held at greater than 41 degrees Fahrenheit.

But we have a simpler approach to Japango. We don’t go.

Open Kitchen Cafe had 8 violations in a licensing inspection. It’s located inside the Crystal Corporate Center on Military Trail at Butts Road and does delivery as well.

We have a couple Chipotle inspections including 6 violations (4 high priority) on 441 just south of Wiles and 5 violations on Military Trail north of Yamato. The Coral Springs location had stop sales on chopped chicken and white rice for improper storage temperature.

Beehive Kitchen in East Boca had 5 violations as did Bolay on Beracasa Way in Boca Del Mar. Texas Roadhouse on Lyons in Coconut Creek had 4 violations.

The best inspection this week goes to Cooper’s Hawk in Coconut Creek’s Promenade with just one minor violation.
