SAN ANTONIO – A downtown restaurant was written up in late March after it was found thawing meat improperly, city health records show.
El Pollo King, located in the 500 block of El Paso Street, received a score of 82 after an inspector found boxed meat being thawed at room temperature, instead of in a refrigerator, under running water or as part of the cooking process.
The establishment was also cited for having debris on the surfaces of some equipment.
