A Brownsville snow cone stand is ordered to fumigate after roaches turn up during an inspection report.
Nery’s Snow Cones #2 on 1415 Ringgold Street scored 23 demerits.
The small stand is no stranger to dirty dining.
It’s been featured two other times as a low performer on Food 4 Thought.
Kitchen cops recently found improper hygiene and labeling practices, no hot water or towels for proper sanitation and a dirty freezer in addition to the roaches.
In McAllen, Gorditas Dona Tota on 2812 Nolana scored 22 demerits.
Management talked to the Food Patrol about the multiple violations which included a cross contamination of raw meat next to prepared foods.
Food Patrol: “You do know people can get sick from that, right?”
Manager: “Yea, I know.”
The restaurant has since taken steps to correct the problems.
