The Marathon County Health Department has released its latest round of inspection results for licensed food businesses, covering visits in October across the county. The Wausau Daily Herald reports the results monthly.

The highest count in the round was at the Best Western Plus at 201 N. 17th Ave. in Wausau, which was cited for 10 violations on Oct. 16. Inspectors listed raw chicken stored above other shelves, coolers without accurate thermometers, a missing sanitizer test kit, and dish-machine water that was not hot enough for the sanitizer rinse, along with missing towels at handwashing sinks, a worker without a hair restraint, taco shells stored on the floor, and dirty coolers and grill areas. Several of the problems were fixed during the visit.

Other Wausau locations had smaller counts. Charlie's Texas Smokehouse Bar & Grill had five violations, including a bar dishwasher that was not sanitizing and a food prep sink that was not being used. The Days Inn on Rib Mountain Drive also had five, while Char Grillhouse had three and Chipotle had three. The Copper Kettle Steakhouse had no violations, and The Rec Room had one.

Outside Wausau, inspectors found four violations at Jam'erz Bar in Edgar, two at Knowlton House Distillery in Mosinee, and two at The Jim in Weston. Pam's Sunshine Inn in Athens, Chang's Halfmoon Lake View Bar and Grill in Mosinee, The Dancy Line in Mosinee and Nutz Deep II North in Spencer each had one violation. Taco John's in Schofield and Tri-City Family Restaurant in Schofield, on reinspection, had none.

The results are a snapshot from the inspection day, and the report notes where a business fixed an issue while the inspector was still on site.
