The Mississippi Department of Health conducted 10 food service inspections in Panola County
between Oct. 1-31 with seven facilities receiving A grades. There were two B grades and one C
assigned.
Restaurants and other food facilities are required to display their inspection results with a letter grade to
clearly communicate the most recent health department inspection.
The A, B or C rating reflects whether critical violations were found and corrected. This grading system
appears in all restaurants, as well as food facilities such as school cafeterias, day care centers, and cafes
and bars where food is sold.
“A” grade means the facility inspection found no critical violations.
“B” grade means critical violations were found but corrected under the supervision of the inspecting
environmentalist. No further corrective actions are required.
“C” grade means critical violations were found, but some or all were not corrected during the
inspection. The facility will be re-inspected, and all violations must be corrected in a time period not to
exceed 10 days.
The Panola County facilities receiving A grades were as follows:
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Windy City Grille, Thai Hut, Sardis Circle Z, Como Tobacco and
Beer Discount, Country Line Grill and Travelin’ Toms mobile unit.
The Panola County facilities receiving B grades were:
Windy City Grill, which later received an A grade on reinspection and Huddle House on Lakewood
Drive, which originally received a C grade but earned a B grade after reinspection.
