Strip club food safety

Kat recently tweeted about the Acropolis not quite making the grade during a health department inspection. I’ve always wondered how well kept some of the kitchens are in some of the clubs. I’m scared to use the bathroom in some places. I found the web sites for the health department and looked up the most recent inspection report for a lot of the Portland clubs. Here are the results. Keep in mind that anything less than a score of 70 will get shut down.

Acropolis	75
Blush	96
Boom Boom Room	86
Bottom's Up	96
Cabaret	100
Casa Diablo	100
Dancin' Bare	97
Devil's Point	94
Dolphin 1	86
Dolphin 2	89
Double Dribble	92
Dream on	99
Hawthorne Strip	85
Jody’s	99
Lucky Devil Lounge	90
Lure	77
Mary’s	88
Montegos	99
Nicolai st	98
Pirate’s Cove	97
Riverside Corral	100
Safari	94
Sassy’s	84
Soobie’s	97
Star’s Cabaret Beaverton	85
Star’s Cabaret Bridgeport	83
Sunset Strip	89
Tommy’s Too	98
Viewpoint	100
Union Jack’s	92

For a quick comparison I looked a couple restaurants that I’ve recently eaten at that don’t feature live entertainment.

Momo’s Sushi	95
Giant Burger	100
Hall Street bar and grll	87
Stanford’s	100
Ruth’s Chris	100

It seems that most of the clubs do a pretty good job of keeping the place clean. Some seem to be a bit lower than others. There were a couple of interesting notes. Lure got busted for making food at the manager’s house and bringing it into the club. I wonder how the inspector discovered that. Either it was sitting in the manager’s car or somebody tattled on them. I was really surprise to see Star’s Cabaret got a 75 in a previous inspection. That’s down at the bottom with the Acropolis.
