Disagree. The author wanted a restaurant-quality inspection, and got
it. The SJ Mercury News ran a similar article years ago, on
volunteers' kitchens. One woman almost passed, except she allowed her
dog in the kitchen. Keep hot food hot and cold food cold, Get oven and
fridge thermometers and meat thermometers, as well as a pocket test
thermometer. Nothing that collects dust, no surfaces that can't be
wiped clean.
