These Miami restaurants racked up 30 violations - but didn't get closed by inspection
Briefly

Three Miami restaurants were cited for serious food safety violations, including moldy tomatoes and improper storage of clean utensils, with each reporting over 30 violations. Despite these serious issues, they passed inspections and remained open. In contrast, a nearby restaurant, Paradise Cafe, was shut down after inspections revealed live roaches. This instance highlights potential inconsistencies in the enforcement of health codes, as restaurants with serious violations remained in operation while those with fewer but different issues faced closure for vermin presence.
Clean utensils stored between a soiled wall and a three-compartment sink highlight serious food safety violations, including grease and dirt issues throughout the kitchen areas.
Despite significant violations, three Miami restaurants passed inspections while a fourth was shut down due to vermin, emphasizing irregularities in health standards enforcement.
