Inspectors say Rocking Crab Seafood and Bar on Blanding Boulevard near Youngerman Circle had time-temperature safety violations, raw animal food stored over ready-to eat-food and an employee personal items stored above a food prep area.
National Pizza Day was this past Tuesday, but according to inspectors, one local pizza shop had “mushroom” for improvement.
