Having spent over a decade working as a cook in various restaurants, I can assure you that at any given time, most restaurants are in violation of far more than three health code regulations. And the cliche is true, the more expensive the restaurant, the nastier the kitchen.
- colechristensen 12y agoWhen this is the case, sympathy for a shut down restaurant is gone. I don't particularly care about conspiracy to shut down a restaurant serving dirty food, regardless of the intentions of the conspirators.
- jpatokal 12y agoViolating regulations does not necessarily equate to "dirty food". For example, in SF it's OK for a coffee shop to sell ice cream in cups, but a health code violation to do so in cones. http://blog.sfgate.com/cityinsider/2011/05/26/big-government-wants-your-ice-cream-cones/ http://blog.sfgate.com/cityinsider/2011/05/26/big-government...

- vonmoltke 12y agojpatokal already addressed this with a specific case, but you are presuming that all health code regulations are logical and actually deal with threats to patron health.
