DineSafe TorontoThis week on DineSafe, some of our favourite sources of indulgence were tested and passed, though not, unfortunately, with flying colours. Those around U of T looking to treat themselves to a doughnut or piece of pizza may have found their go-to spots now brandished with conditional passes. Krispy Kreme on Harbord got caught on a couple of regulations last week, along with Papa Ceo, which is known for its enormous (and fairly cheap) slices. Moving north, The Cake Boutique took the uh, "cake" this week with nine total infractions, followed by Café Palma at Mel Lastman Square with eight across the board.

And just when you were thinking that healthy might be the way to go, the nutrition-focused Glow Fresh Grill at the Shops at Don Mills, alas, was also on the "Conditional" list. Here are some of the yellow passes that were handed out this week.

Is it just me or is Papa Ceo on the Dinesafe yellow list as often as the calendar says it's monday?

It's neighbour, Cora's, has much better pizza. Cora's had an infestation a couple of years ago. After it reopened, I went to Papa Ceo's a couple of times, but was never satisfied. I find their crusts too soft and somewhat tasteless. I hope Cora's keep up their non-rat status!

Papa Ceo's has passed their previous four inspections so, yes, it's just you.
