Deerfield-News.com-Deerfield Beach,Fl-Another place I like to eat was closed by State of Florida inspections Ben’s Kosher Deli on Clint Moore and 441 in West Boca. Bugs and Roaches are generally not Kosher the Rabbi and the State of Florida frown on them too. Ronnie Dragoon runs a better operation than what the report below indicates and I hope he gets his Boca crew in order. The complete inspection report from the DBPR is posted below.

Violations:
A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below. The department cites violations of Florida’s sanitation and safety laws, which are based on the standards of U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Food Code. High Priority violations are those which could contribute directly to a foodborne illness or injury and include items such as cooking, reheating, cooling and hand-washing. Intermediate violations are those which, if not addressed, could lead to risk factors that contribute to foodborne illness or injury. These violations include personnel training, documentation or record keeping and labeling. Basic violations are those which are considered best practices to implement. While most establishments correct all violations in a timely manner (often during the inspection), the division’s procedures are designed to compel compliance with all violations through follow-up visits, administration action or closure when necessary.
