"L.a.CountyHealthInspector" news and stories

Get your kitchen graded by the L.A. health inspector

Los Angeles home public health reportI don't know whether to be charmed or alarmed.

If you live in Los Angeles, you've no doubt seen the large ABC gradings hung outside of every eatery. A large "A" tells you that the county health inspector has deemed the restaurant up to snuff. B's and C's suggest a restaurant has been found lacking in health and cleanliness, although everyone knows that the best ethnic foods in town don't meet this level and are fantastic anyway. One blogger reckons this is because American health code standards are ridiculously, well, American in their fastidiousness.

Regardless. The signs are ubiquitous around town. But now you can get your own home kitchen rated by the health inspector, and if yours rates an "A" - the county will send you your own "A" refrigerator magnet.

Even though I know better than to think my kitchen would cut the mustard, I can't think of a cooler gift for your favorite foodie friend. Unfortunately, the health department doesn't send out "B" or "C" magnets. Somebody will just have to send me one...

Does your kitchen make the grade? Take the quiz and find out!
