This week's TMJ4 "Dirty Dining" NEWS:
Courtny Gerrish's target: Parkview Cafe, 4871 N. Green Bay Ave. in Milwaukee.
Yet another small establishment.
The inspector found food sitting out at room temperature. Things like a pan of raw fish and a container of peeled potatoes on the kitchen floor. Things that could make you sick.
Raw meat was stored above ready to eat food in a cooler. If juice from that meat spills it could contaminate the food below. This is a repeat violation.
...When I told an employee why we stopped by she told me the owner "doesn't want to talk to us."
There was also a can of Raid on a shelf with food items. Parkview cafe was ordered to use only approved insecticides.
Look at the restaurant.
This is just a guess, but I don't think Parkview Cafe buys ad time on WTMJ radio or TV, like Perkins.
That means the Parkview Cafe story is on TMJ4's website to stay.
The Perkins in Brookfield had violations too, but TMJ4 chose to scrub its website of that story.
Things were happening at that Perkins that could make you sick, but informing the public about Perkins' violations was just too high a price for TMJ4 to pay.
Bottom line: $$$
This "Dirty Dining" feature is a joke. It's not news. It's a hit job, targeting places that don't have the leverage that comes with being a sponsor, like Perkins.
