The Miami Herald has a report from the local health inspectors' recent visit to Mar-a-Lago, and the results are not too appetizing. They found 13 violations, which is a significant uptick from the one or two the club usually ends up with. Especially of note were three “high priority" violations, which could cause unsafe food to be served to guests.
▪ Fish designed to be served raw or undercooked, the inspection report reads, had not undergone proper parasite destruction. Kitchen staffers were ordered to cook the fish immediately or throw it out.
▪ In two of the club’s coolers, inspectors found that raw meats that should be stored at 41 degrees were much too warm and potentially dangerous: chicken was 49 degrees, duck clocked in a [sic] 50 degrees and raw beef was 50 degrees. The winner? Ham at 57 degrees.
▪ The club was cited for not maintaining the coolers in proper working order and was ordered to have them emptied immediately and repaired.
