In Georgia, USA, why not have Gwinnett County’s most popular Korean barbecue named Honey Pig, and fail its second health inspection this year.
Honey Pig, located at 3473 Old Norcross Road in Duluth, received a 53/U during its Wednesday inspection. It was the same score health inspectors gave it during a January evaluation.
During Wednesday’s inspection, officials noted “multiple foods not covered in walk in cooler,” improperly cooling radish soup and unlabeled spices. According to the inspection report, “large food service containers” were also stored outside the restaurant and a hand-washing sink was “gushing water at the seams.”
Wednesday’s failure was the second straight on a routine inspection for Honey Pig, which bills itself as “Atlanta’s No. 1 Korean barbecue restaurant” and allows diners to cook their own meals on tabletop grills. During the restaurant’s failed January 19 inspection, officials reportedly saw a live spider crawling in dried soup stock. Points were also taken off for potential contamination of raw beef. The restaurant scored a 96/A on the follow-up to that inspection.
