An honest post-DOH inspection reaction



Ten Degrees Bistro at 121 St. Mark's Place got dinged during a DOH inspection this past Thursday ... with the city agency forcing a closure after finding 48 violation points. (No. 1 item listed: "Food worker does not use proper utensil to eliminate bare hand contact with food that will not receive adequate additional heat treatment.")



And the management's meme-generated reaction ...

Fist pump baby meme is for expressing staunch approval, not disappointment. Facepalm.gif

It's ridiculous that someone in the kitchen isn't handling food in the proper way, especially since they have been in business for years. I have a Food Handlers License from the NYC DOH. I studied for it in 2014. It's not as easy as one would think. There are two exams, one online and one in person. Both have to be done in addition to a weeks worth of classes too. Its a calling card for anyone employed in a restaurant/bar. Whomever is in charge here obviously failed to address guidelines. I have seen places shut down completely for violations that were never resolved. As a long term member of this neighborhood, I expected more of Ten Degrees. They should not take this with a grain of salt.
