Restaurant Health Reports: October

These are the health department's October restaurant inspections. A second article with a link in the reports describes these violations in detail.

The Danbury Health Department filed the following health inspections in October.

For a complete description of each violation below, click here to see the state's guide to restaurant inspections. Note the violation number on the left under each restaurant, and then find that violation number in linked state guide.

Those items listed below each restaurants are the violations. So a restaurant, for example, with a 9 - Handling of Food Minimized, didn't minimize the handling of their food. A restaurant with a 7 - Food protected during storage, preparation, display, service and transportation, failed to protect its food. A serious violation, a four-point violation, for example, Failing to Maintain Proper Food Temperature, might mean an automatic failure, because that violation is more unhealthy for patrons than a number 3 violation or a number 2 violation.
