ABOUT RESTAURANT INSPECTIONS

This is a snapshot of the inspections conducted by the Marion and Polk County health departments.

Twice annually, licensed restaurants receive unannounced inspections that focus on food temperatures, food preparation practices, worker hygiene, dish-washing and sanitizing, and equipment and facility cleanliness.

Violations: Restaurant scores are based on a 100-point scale. Priority violations deduct 5 points, and priority foundation violations deduct 3 points. Violations recorded on consecutive inspections result in point deductions being doubled.

Scoring: Scores of 70 or higher are considered compliant. Restaurants scoring below 70 must be re-inspected within 30 days or face closure or other administrative action. Restaurants display a placard by the entrance to indicate whether they have passed their last inspection.

Law360, London (September 30, 2020, 5:35 PM BST) —
A judge granted Pizza Express permission on Wednesday to take a planned restructuring to creditors for approval, after the restaurant chain said it is facing a liquidity crisis because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Judge Alastair Norris said the pandemic and the subsequent lockdown measures that have been put in place in the U.K. “threaten to devastate whole sections of the casual dining sector, which was already facing a challenging environment.”

The hottest new spots in Cape Town

Adella Miesner 3 weeks ago

It may have felt like the world was on a go-slow this year, but some restaurateurs used the downtime to launch new ventures. As we all start heading out again, here are the new restaurants in Cape Town to add to your must-visit list.

Ciao Pizza (City Bowl)

This West Coast pizzeria found a new home in the city centre during lockdown. The wood-fired pizzas boast authentic Italian ingredients that are 100% halaal and are made in the traditional Neapolitan way with a soft, chewy crust.

I Sapori (Table View)

This deli, which opened during lockdown, has now also launched a new bistro. Enjoy a glass of wine with typical Italian pasta dishes, antipasti platters, or desserts such as tiramisu on the deck.

(Bloomberg) — Global confirmed deaths topped 1 million, while U.S. hospitalizations have plateaued after falling for months. That suggests that the country could see more deaths and illness as it heads toward winter.

New York City’s daily test positivity rate topped 3% for the first time in months. In North Dakota, the seven-day average of new cases climbed to a record.

Boris Johnson apologized after wrongly explaining his own government’s coronavirus rules, and responded to reports of concern among colleagues by saying he is healthier than he was before getting the virus in March.

The pandemic is among selected topics for Joe Biden and President Donald Trump’s face-off on Tuesday night, and viewers can expect them to tangle over the path toward a vaccine approval in the U.S.

US census to end October 5, despite court order

Adella Miesner 3 weeks ago

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross says the 2020 census will end Oct. 5, despite a federal judge’s ruling last week allowing the head count of every U.S. resident to continue through the end of October, according to a tweet posted by the Census Bureau on Monday.

The tweet said the ability for people to self-respond to the census questionnaire and the door-knocking phase when census takers go to homes that haven’t yet responded are targeted to end Oct. 5.

The announcement came as a virtual hearing was being held in San Jose, California, as a follow-up to U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh’s preliminary injunction. The injunction issued last week suspended the Census Bureau’s deadline for ending the head count on Sept. 30, which automatically reverted back to an older Census Bureau plan in which the timeline for ending field operations was Oct. 31.

CDC Restaurant Study: Miami Restaurants Adapt to COVID-19

When the managers at All Day cafe convened for their weekly meeting on March 11, co-owner Camila Ramos could sense that major changes were afoot in the food-and-beverage industry. Although it was 24 hours before the mayor of Miami-Dade County declared a state of emergency, Ramos and her team began hatching plans for what to do if cases of the coronavirus started to spread locally.

“We met with the managers and said, ‘Hey guys, you know it hasn’t hit us yet, but it’s only a matter of time,'” Ramos remembers.

That day, the downtown coffee shop made arrangements to transition to disposable utensils, implement an hourly sanitation schedule, and issue gloves to all employees. Later that night, officials announced the first case of COVID-19 in Miami-Dade County.

That was six months ago. In that time, restaurants like All Day have faced one challenge after another as state and local officials

CULINARY TIPS

Miso’s Role in Japanese Cuisine, Plus Cooking Tips, Recipes, and Ideas

Adella Miesner 3 weeks ago

Until recently, my experience with miso was limited to the tasty little bowl of miso soup I’d enjoy at Japanese restaurants. I began to appreciate the multitasking brilliance of miso only this year, when I started cooking my way through Washington Post food editor Joe Yonan’s fantastic new vegetarian cookbook, Cool Beans ($20, Amazon).

Yonan often calls for his “favorite all-purpose blast-of-umami ingredient” in recipes you might not expect if, like me, you weren’t already clued into the versatility of miso. Think white miso in a lemon-herb marinade for tofu feta, sprinkled on a pinto bean tortilla salad. Or red miso whisked into reserved pasta cooking water for a borlotti bean and bitter greens pasta dish.

With a couple of mostly full tubs of miso in my fridge, I started experimenting with adding a spoonful here and there to my fave veg dishes—pasta, lentils, soups, roasted veggies, sauces, salad dressings,

Officials from the Amarillo Chamber of Commerce, as well as the Texas Panhandle community, came together Wednesday afternoon for a ribbon cutting for the Texas Panhandle War Memorial Center at its location at 4101 S Georgia St.

This ribbon-cutting came before its new museum and education center opens to the public Thursday. According to a news release, the memorial offers veteran referral services, a museum with artifacts from various wars in United States history, an education center providing attendees with information regarding various wars and conflicts, as well as the only military chapel in the Texas Panhandle.

This new center goes along with the established memorial park, honoring those Texas Panhandle military members who lost their lives while in the military.

Officials with the West Texas Warbird Flight Association started Wednesday’s event with a flyover of vintage aircraft. The Das family was also presented with a Purple Heart medal for

Stephen Fries: Add these squash dishes to your autumn menu | Entertainment

Recently at a farmers market I was reminded — too soon — that fall was on its way when I saw gourds, squash and both mini and full-size pumpkins being displayed. I thought it was too soon for me to buy the minis to put on the fireplace mantle and give to a few friends, a tradition I began years ago. It’s frustrating to me when, in mid-summer, I see all of the pumpkin spice products, and some strange ones, too (really? pumpkin spice Spam?), already available. The list continues with, of course, pumpkin spice coffee, KitKats, Cheerios, Jell-O, English muffins, coffee creamers, yogurt, tea, hot chocolate and kettle corn, among a plethora of both edible and non-edible items.

I just need a couple of more weeks to give in, and admit colder weather is to arrive, and make the purchase of those minis. Walking away from the fall crops,

7 things to know in Austin food now: Revered local sushi spot shutters

Editor’s note: We get it. It can be difficult to keep up with the fast pace of Austin’s restaurant and bar scene. We have you covered with our regular roundup of essential food news.

Openings and closings

Kyoten Sushiko, the sushi food truck turned omakase-focused restaurant, announced its Mueller brick-and-mortar’s permanent closure on Sunday, September 27, via an emotional social media post. The restaurant called the eatery a “small slice of heaven here in Mueller,” adding that decision to close was difficult. Since the food truck opened in 2014, Kyoten had drawn critical praise for its hyper-seasonal menu of fish predominately sourced from Japan. Unlike its originating Austin outpost, founding chef Otto Phan assured followers that Kyoten Chicago is in “no danger” of closing.
