Is your favorite Sussex County restaurant or food establishment among the places with the most health and food safety guideline violations in the past 30 days as of June 29?
See the chart below to find out. At the top of the chart is Aunt Mary’s Kitches in Milford, which had 25 violations on June 14.
Or see how well food establishments in all three Delaware counties are complying with regulations by searching Delaware Online/The News Journal’s restaurant inspection database.
Restaurants, food trucks, church kitchens, grocery stores, delis, concession stands, ice cream parlors, pizzerias, schools, hospitals, bakeries, fitness centers, hotels, and golf clubs are among the more than 3,500 permitted Delaware food establishments that prepare and serve food to the public and are included in the database.
The database is updated using information from the Delaware Department of Health and Social Services. Most places are inspected twice per year, using the State of Delaware Food Code, a science-based regulation similar to the national model from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The database is meant to be a tool for consumers to be informed, however, it is only one measurement of a food establishment’s operations and does not provide a full picture of any business’s overall standards or offerings.
If you have questions regarding a food inspection report, whether currently reported or for a prior reporting period, please contact the Office of Food Protection at 302-744-4546.
