Who passed health checks in Wichita KS? Pizzerias, diners, dessert spots made the list
Looking for a place to dine out, grocery shop or stay in the Wichita-area?
Places that serve and sell food or offer lodging to the public are regularly inspected by the Kansas Department of Agriculture to make sure they’re clean and safe. The rules they’re expected to follow include things such as keeping bugs and mice out, handling food properly, avoiding old food, ensuring workers wash their hands, and keeping equipment and rooms in good repair so no one gets sick or hurt.
Here are 46 businesses in Sedgwick County that passed their food safety or lodging inspections Feb. 9-15, according to the state. Many had few or no violations.
Inspections happen routinely but also when someone files a complaint. Inspectors return to businesses that failed recent checks to make sure they’ve fixed any problems, so some places that passed may have had trouble previously.
Inspections occur at restaurants, stores, gas stations, hotels, motels, schools, concession stands, entertainment venues, bars, food trucks and other businesses and organizations that feed or rent rooms to the public.
This list was compiled on Feb. 19 using information available from the state on that date. It only covers Sedgwick County.
