Teriyaki spot scores 100 red points. Here are Thurston Co. food scores for Nov. 10

Comments are taken directly from the latest Thurston County Public Health and Social Services (PHSS) inspection reports, which are available for each food establishment, at the Thurston County Environmental Health Office and their website. For questions concerning these reports, contact the health office at 360-867-2667. Report restaurant, grocery store, deli or bakery complaints online via the complaint form here: https://www.thurstoncountywa.gov/phss/Pages/eh-problem.aspx . Reading inspection scores: Red violations are those most likely to cause food-borne illness and must be corrected immediately if feasible or according to a compliance schedule established by the health officer. Example: not keeping food at the right temperature. Blue violations relate to the overall cleanliness and condition of operation and must be corrected according to a compliance schedule established by the health officer. Example: a worn floor that needs replacing. If red points exceed 45, the county will require a reinspection within 10 business days. A reinspection also is required if total red and blue points exceed 65. If red points exceed 100 and there’s a lack of managerial control, the county may shut down the establishment. The establishment may reopen after the person-in-charge develops a written course of action to correct all violations and demonstrates corrective action

Smash burger restaurant opens in Thurston Co. New apartments planned in Tumwater

PNW Smash Burger , the father and son dream of Alexander and Xander Mararac, is now reality as the grand opening of the business is set for Saturday, Nov. 14. “After a long wait, we are officially opening our doors!” they said in an email. Both have food experience. Alex grew up working in his parents’ Filipino restaurant in South Tacoma, he said, and Xander, his son, studied culinary arts at the New Market Skills Center in Tumwater and was set to do the same at South Puget Sound Community College until the program closed, The Olympian previously reported. Let’s get to the important stuff: What’s a smash burger? It’s a balled up beef patty that is then flattened on a hot surface, stainless steel or cast iron, giving the burger a seared and crispy edge while maintaining its juiciness, the Mararacs told The Olympian. What’s on the menu? For one, the Alpine smash burger: Using 100% ground chuck, they then add grilled onions, melted Swiss cheese and top it with truffle garlic aioli sauce and serve it on a buttered toasted potato bun. Where can you get one? 730 Sleater Kinney Road SE, Suite D. They intend to operate
