Message: | When the rating system was first put into place in Los Angeles, Sweet Lady Jane's was given a "C". I talked to workers there and did some investigation and found out that it had a great deal to do with the regulations regarding sink size and placement in relationship to the rest of the work stations. Once they redesigned their back kitchen, the rating was changed to an "A". The quality of their desserts was never different from no rating to a "C" rating to an "A" rating -- always exceptional.
So, the rating may not necessarily be based on filth. (Although a "C" rating DOES scare me a bit more now that the system has been in effect for a while.)
Unrelated question -- I got ants a one of those fast-food Chinese places once. I thought about going back but couldn't find their rating. When I asked about it, they said they no longer had to post a rating. I didn't believe them and walked out. |
