Kitchen Cops shut down two north Alabama restaurants during Christmas week


HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WAFF) – The Kitchen Cops around north Alabama are not taking a break this holiday season. They were out, making their list and checking it twice, finding out who was naughty and who was nice. Two different businesses were actually shut down days before Christmas due to overwhelming problems that needed to be fixed right away before any more customers could be served.

DeKalb County

The first business to get on the naughty list this week was La Tienda Ideal in Albertville. This is actually a restaurant and a grocery store in one location, and they were scored separately.

The restaurant had a 64 due to roaches in the building, mold in the ice machine and mold on cooked meat in the cooler. There was also an issue with medication found near food items, no paper towels at one sink and several items in different coolers without date markings.

The La Tienda Ideal market was also inspected during this visit and got a higher, but still failing grade of 77. The roaches noted in the restaurant were present here as well. There was also a problem with chemicals not stored properly and one sink with no hot water. The roach issue was cited on the state website confirming La Tienda Ideal was closed until the issues were fixed.

Elsewhere in DeKalb County, the Fyffe Stop & Go on Main Street got an 83 due to mold in the soda nozzles.

Limestone County

The Krystal on Highway 72 near the I-65 interchange was shut down on December 22nd, due to “Inoperable toilets and sewage back up in the restrooms.” We called the phone number listed for this restaurant to confirm whether it has reopened, but the number redirected to another number, which was disconnected. We expect to learn more about this inspection next week.

On this week’s score sheet, there were no failing grades noted in Limestone County.

Madison County

The Burger King on Jeff Road in Harvest was given a 79 due to dirty storage containers, a blocked sink and broken fryer baskets.

Alabama hits home with plans for Tuscaloosa 2027 Edge on official visit




Alabama football hosted a hometown kid for an official visit last weekend when it got Jeremiah Beverley on campus for an official visit.

Beverley attends Hillcrest High School in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and ESPN currently has him rated as a four-star recruit. He is considering Alabama, Cincinnati, Wake Forest and others.

The Crimson Tide offered Beverley earlier this month and got him on campus for an official visit last weekend. The Alabama target told Touchdown Alabama he used the visit to learn what the Tide has planned for him if he commits.

“I’m truly happy that I went on that official visit,” Beverley said. “Blessed for that. All I was talking about was the next step, what I got to do? So, just knowing what they have planned for me, knowing what they have set for me.”

At 6-foot-2 and 235 pounds, Beverley makes plays for Hillcrest-Tuscaloosa as a defensive end. Alabama has plans to use him similarly at the next level.

“They’re going to have me at wolf mostly,” Beverley said. “I know coach (Kane) Wommack and coach (Christian) Robinson, I think they see me at other positions, but I know it is guaranteed they’re going to see me at Wolf and me working my way up on special teams, and they expect that out of me.”

Beverley is expected to announce a commitment decision on Friday.

Alabama hires former college offensive lineman as assistant tight ends coach




Alabama football is hiring Noah Fisher to be its assistant tight ends coach, according to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz.

Fisher spent two seasons as a graduate assistant working with the offensive line and tight ends at Louisville before joining the Tide’s staff. He played three years on the offensive line at South Alabama and spent one season with Tulane. The Jaguars started Fisher along its offensive line when he was a player for multiple games.

The Crimson Tide appear to want to use their tight ends in multiple ways in the future including as extra blockers along the line of scrimmage. Fisher looks as if he can assist the Tide with this mission.

Petition calls on State of Alabama to fund fix for Prichard sewer system after spills


Sewage overflows during storms in Prichard are sending wastewater into local waterways that feed Mobile Bay, prompting an environmental group to push for state funding to upgrade aging infrastructure.

Mobile Baykeeper says sewage overflows during storms flow into Three Mile Creek, then into the Mobile River, and ultimately end up in Mobile Bay. The group said that last week, during heavy rain, more than 256,000 gallons of sewage spilled into Gum Tree Branch and Three Mile Creek.

Mobile Baykeeper has launched a petition seeking funding from the state of Alabama to fix Prichard’s old water infrastructure.
