Top Chef All Star Winner’s Buckhead restaurant scores 69/100 on random health inspection
Flip Burger Boutique Buckhead passed three scheduled (follow-up) health inspections in January but failed their random (routine) health inspection Friday with a score of 69/100.
Scheduled inspections mean the restaurant knows when the health inspector is coming. It’s almost unheard of to fail a scheduled inspection. Because the restaurant has no idea when a random inspection will occur, it is a far more accurate reflection of how the restaurant operates its kitchen.
Failing scores change from one health inspector to the next but the industry standard is that anything below a 70 (out of 100) is failing, according to April Majors, public information officer for the Fulton County Environmental Health Services Department.
Here’s a a screen shot of Flip Burger’s failed health inspection:
