A health inspector noted that the restaurant’s BBQ chicken sat at room temperature rather than in a cooler prior to cooking. The eatery also lost points for a broken restroom door and shelving with scattered food debris.
When contacted by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a woman who identified herself as the owner declined to comment.
According to the restaurant’s Facebook page, Flavor Café will celebrate its one-year anniversary at the end of the month. Yelp reviewers rate the café at just under 3 stars.
The restaurant will be re-inspected.
