While inspectors were busy reviewing Kyle eateries in November, only a few stops made in Buda.
Kyle had only one place with a below-average rating. The Bread Basket on Goforth Road received 15 demerits, an improvement from its last visit when it received 21demerits in June, which was far below average.
Kyle saw four restaurants reach exemplary scores and several others were above average and average.
Buda had three spots inspected and all did well, with exemplary and above-average scores.
The county does not score on a standard 0 to 100 scale, but instead tabulates total demerits. If no violations are found, a score of 0 demerits is achieved. If an establishment receives more than 30 demerits, a re-inspection is required, and corrections must be made to bring the total score below 30, in accordance with the Texas Food Establishment Rules (Chapter 229 of the Texas Administrative Code/Health Services).
Look for more inspection scores in the coming year as the county continues its work in the Kyle and Buda area.
