Staff at a Leeds sandwich shop have hit out at a “nit-picky” food inspector who gave them a one-star food hygiene rating.
Emma’s Sandwich Bar in Armley was told to “clean and degrease all surfaces, including walls and ceiling” by Leeds City Council inspectors. But a staff member called the inspection a “mishap” and said the inspector was being “harsh because he had a trainee with him”.
The inspector noted down multiple issues in the Wortley Road deli after visiting on February 15, awarding it the second lowest rating possible. A one-star rating means 'major improvements are necessary'.
