DeKalb wings spot fails health check with ‘old food residue’

Georgia has rules it requires every food service operation to follow. These are just a few of the many health and safety regulations. Food service operations without a permit are illegal. Employees must know how to prevent foodborne illness and the symptoms of those illnesses. Food must be kept at the correct temperatures to prevent pathogens from growing. Employees must meet standards of cleanliness while working around food. If health laws are not met, the food service's permit may be suspended.

A DeKalb County wings restaurant failed its recent health inspection with a variety of issues.

WNB Factory, located at 5445 Fairington Road in Lithonia, received a 62 on Thursday, according to the inspector's report. The problems included wings stored at the wrong temperature as well as "old food residue" on "contact surfaces of tomato slicer, onion slicer, mesh strainer and pink cup."

Abbas Larhani, general manager, said he expects the restaurant to pass when revisited, which typically happens within 10 days.

“This is high priority,” he said Friday.
