Food stored near WD-40 drops restaurant\'s score
Sanitizer CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- This week’s health inspection scores are among the best we’ve ever seen. Literally, it
was a great week to eat out, and there’s not much reason to be wary.We went through more than 150 reports, and found just
one restaurant that did not earn an “A” grade.That spot is the Red Bowl Asian Bistro on Mount Holly-Huntersville Road.
According to the health reports, inspectors found live roaches in the kitchen, and food that was stored on the floor.Red Bowl
was also storing some of its food too closely to chemicals like paint and WD-40. At the time of its initial inspection, Red
Bowl earned an 87.5. We’ve since learned that it was re-inspected, and its score improved to 93.5.We also want to tell you
about a re-inspection at Mama Fu’s Restaurant on Woodlawn Road. A few weeks ago, the restaurant was given a poor grade for
having too much cleaning sanitizer on its tables, and too little sanitizer in the dishwasher. That problem has now been
fixed, but Mama Fu’s is still cross-contaminating some of its meats. The score is much improved, though, jumping from an 83
to a 91.As for the best of the week, Bi-Lo’s Seafood section on Rose Commons Drive and its Produce Department on South Tryon
Street both made the top of the list. The Wendy’s on Statesville Road scored a 102. And McAlister’s Deli at UNCC earned a
101.5
