Sewage Flowing, Black Mold, Live Roach: Northern Virginia Restaurant Inspections

Some signs of a bad restaurant are obvious: Off-putting smells, grimy tables or unkempt employees are all red flags. But sometimes the problem is harder to spot, such as food stored at improper temperatures or unclean kitchen equipment. Then there are commercial kitchens that are spotless, surpass all safety standards and dish up delicious food.
