Another day, another restaurant with health inspection problems. While about once a week another restaurant is flagged for performing poorly on its annual visit by the health inspector, the vast majority of restaurants never have issues, excel at the cleanliness and certifications needed, and you never have to think twice about visiting. However, one Tucson restaurant has never performed all that well on its annual inspections and has had infractions during eight of the nine visits. This last visit was not the exception, resulting in the restaurant being placed on probation.
