Tank in the Tavern
As a public service, the Manhattan Mercury in Manhattan, Kansas, home of iFSN at Kansas State University, publishes a weekly list of findings by the food service inspector at the local health department. This week's area food inspections report for the week ending August 12 includes results for Applebee's, Tanks Tavern, and Sonic Drive In.
The paper emphasizes that the findings should be seen as a snapshot of conditions existing at the exact time of the inspection rather than as a reflection of the permanent conditions in an establishment.
The report for Tanks Tavern (712 N. Manhattan Ave), a new addition to the bar scene in Aggieville has to be my favourite. On August 2, in response to a complaint inspection, two critical violations were noted: 1. No handsink in bar area; 2. Found live dog in bar and dog food stored under sink. Four non-critical violations were also noted and a follow-up inspection was required.
Prior to the tavern's opening at the end of January, tavern owner, Brett Allred told the Kansas State Collegian that the Tavern's mascot, Tank, a pitbull mix, would be at the bar at all times -- guess not.
