13 fail latest Tri-Cities restaurant inspections

The Benton-Franklin Health District food safety team inspected 30 places to eat for cleanliness and food handling practices during the week of April 13-19.

Thirteen failed and 15 earned perfect scores on the 418-point rating system, which considers safe food handling knowledge, cleanliness and accepted preparation methods.

It takes 25 of the more serious red points to fail a routine inspection and 10 to fail a follow-up.

Contact the health district at 509-460-4205 with questions and concerns.

Establishments that need to be reinspected are listed first, followed by those that passed and do not need to be re-inspected before their next unscheduled visit.
