This week on DineSafe: Green Room, La Tortilleria, Kokame Japanese, Noodle Bowl, Pita King, Sinchon Food, Steve's Restaurant, Top Taste
This week on DineSafe, another three Toronto restaurants provided a little extra incentive for packing your own lunch. Kokame Japanese on Wilson, La Tortilleria on St. Clair, and Sinchon Food on Bayview were all required to close their doors for varied unacceptable health and safety conditions. To offer a little spoiler (no pun intended): rodents and insects were involved. Joining them on the shortlist this week are the Green Room and Noodle Bowl (among others) both of which are no strangers to critical DineSafe scrutiny. Here's a glimpse of some of the places that made it on the DineSafe list this week.
