Patch brings you the latest inspection reports from the health department.
Health Department restaurant inspection reports aren't quite as simple as getting a letter grade or an easy-to-see number rating to post in the front window. In Fairfax County, inspectors from the Virginia Department of Health grade restaurants based on critical and non-critical violations. A "critical violation" is one that "poses a direct or immediate threat to the safety of the food being served." Non-critical violations are generally related to cleaning or maintenance. Since our last round-up, the following McLean restaurants and schools have been inspected by the Virginia Department of Health. The full reports can be accessed on the health department's website. How this works: Click on the name of the school or restaurant listed below…

Fairfax Chamber of Commerce won't support a possible 4 percent tax on meals and beverages in Fairfax County. But some leaders say it's a good way to bring in extra revenue.
A potential meals tax in Fairfax County is already leaving a bad taste in the mouths of some members of the business community. During a meeting of the county’s top economic officials Tuesday, the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce (FCCC) said it was opposed to the tax. Christian Deschauer, the FCCC’s vice president of government relations, said the chamber would not support a referendum — a position shared by many restaurant owners, he said. “We’ve never supported state legislation or board action that specifically targets a single industry,” Deschauer said. “I’ve talked to a bunch of restaurants in the past week … and the message has not changed from them – they remain adamantly opposed. That’s just the initial feedback.” Last week …
