Live Eel Tank, Old Food, Mold, Slime Growth: Atlanta Restaurants

ATLANTA, GA — Some telltale signs of a bad restaurant are pretty obvious: Nasty smells, grimy tables or unkempt employees are all red flags. But sometimes the problem is harder to spot, such as food stored at improper temperatures or unclean kitchen equipment. And some kitchens are spotless, with every safety rule followed, and customers well-cared for.
