Sacramento restaurant closed over rodent droppings. What else did inspectors find?

Sacramento County Health Inspectors gave a red placard to a Japanese fusion restaurant after finding about 20 rodent droppings throughout the facility. Additionally, 12 restaurants were cited for unattended raw chicken, gunk found on a can opener and a missing food safety certificate. What do these inspections mean? While a yellow placard signals two or more major violations, these are typically corrected or mitigated during the inspection, according to the Sacramento County Retail Food Inspection Guide . A red placard, however, signals “imminent danger to public health and safety” and suspends an establishment’s health permit until violations are corrected. This could include, but is not limited to, major vermin contamination . In contrast, a green placard means a restaurant passed inspection. The county performs about 14,000 inspections annually and about 97% of establishments pass, spokesman Ken Casparis previously told The Sacramento Bee. Approximately 1% of inspections result in a closure, he said. These were the results of Sacramento County food facility inspections for Thursday, Oct. 29, through Wednesday, Nov. 4. If an inspection listed below needs clarification, business owners can email The Sacramento Bee at servicejournalists@sacbee.com .

New dessert place in downtown Davis serves Thai toast, other sweet Asian treats

Mango sticky rice crepe, Hokkaido milk crepe cakes, and tea lattes are all sugary delectables at courtesy of a new dessert spot in Davis. Naya Dessert Cafe is serving the sweet goods at 620 Fourth St. in downtown Davis. The business specializes in Thai-inspired desserts and is the first and only location in the Sacramento area. The Davis location, which officially opened in October, offers a menu that includes cake, toast, crepes, ice cream, drinks and Bingsu, a creamy Korean shaved ice made from frozen milk and condensed milk. The business’s signature sweets are its Mango Tango Bingsu, Black Thai Tea crepe, Thai Tea crepe cake, and a chocolate lava cake with salted egg cream custard inside and served with vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries. What truly separates Naya Dessert Cafe is its toast dessert. Unlike the traditional flat American toast, Thai toast is a thicker bread that towers over a scoop of ice cream and fresh fruit. With butter glazed on the bread’s edges, Thai toast is sweet, fluffy and served with a flavored cream drizzle. Toasts include: the “Kaya Toasted” with pandan sauce, coconut shaving, sliced banana and vanilla ice cream, the “Golden Toasted” with fresh strawberries,

Owner Sophie Mosgrave has just launched Superette Provisions Club, a monthly subscription plan serving a carefully chosen selection of snackables to your hungrily awaiting palate. Superette carries a kaleidoscopic array of delectables, from tinned fish to gourmet cheeses to locally made pickles to high-end artisan chocolates. The Provisions Club will draw from the store’s full product mix. “The idea behind it is just giving people a regular occurrence of things that we love. There will be some exclusives or at least sneak peeks to things that we want to bring in, but wanted to have like an audience first for it. I think it’s a fun opportunity for folks to maybe try things that they wouldn’t have otherwise known to try, or maybe missed in the shop,” she said. For the inaugural collection, Mosgrave is debuting a new product that’s an extension of one of the shop’s core staples, Mama Teav’s Hot Chili Crisp . The new offering is the producer’s Extra Umami Hot Chili Crisp, which dials back some of the spice and pumps

My 5 Favorite Wineries Near Folsom

People ask me all the time where they should go wine tasting. After years exploring, tasting, pouring at winery events (will work for wine), and judging in the Foothill Wine Competition, I’ve narrowed it down to my five favorite wineries near Folsom. Each one does something no other winery around here does quite the same way, and together they cover five different wine regions, all within an easy drive of town. So, what do I look for in a winery? Yes, great wine is a must, but that’s not all. Hospitality, the setting, price, and events all come into play. All of these figured out how to deliver.
