Knock Knock. Who's there? The HEALTH inspector!

EEK!

He pulled up in a not so inconspicuous vehicle splashed with the City of San Antonio seal "Dept. of Health." Rey spotted him first and we were like "oh crap!" But in reality we have nothing to worry about. We have habits most restaurant owners would kill to have from their own employees. The health inspection is really not at all stressful. They swoop in and do their thing in less than 30 minutes. I sign the form. And it's over. Until next year!

He walked around and checked everything on his notepad. Soap. Check. Paper towels. Check. Fridges cooling at the proper temps. Check. Snoop around the ice machine. It was spotless- I just drained it and sanitized less than 2 weeks ago. He looked under the sink. Nothing. Done and done. He asked me a couple of questions about how we handle certain foods. "With tongs!" Got me a wink and smile from this inspector. Whew.

100%. No demerits. A perfect score!!!

Yay. We couldn't have done it without our motley crew of characters we have working for us.
