This week on DineSafe: Bar Italia, Lion on the Beach, Mavrik, Remarkable Bean, The Friendly Thai
Two weeks in a row of no closures! But some of these conditional passes may disappoint you. The Friendly Thai gets a yellow card for the third time this year. It also gets booked for a total of nine infractions - the most on the list this week.
Another three-time offender this year is Noble Seafood Restaurant. I always cringe when a fish place isn't kept up to par, especially when one of the infractions was "operator failed to properly remove solid waste." As expected, my imagination runs wild. I'll spare you the details of my thoughts while you read about the rest of the offenders.
