Your A is one missed inspection from a C.
I walk into 100+ restaurant kitchens a month to repair the exact things health inspectors write up — torn gaskets, gaps under doors, drains nobody’s checked in months. In 90 minutes I’ll hand you my walk-through, so you catch them before an inspector does.
Pre-inspection scan
What I’d flag walking your line
Violation found
The violations that close kitchens aren’t the ones you’re watching for.
You run a clean floor. The citations that cost the most hide where nobody looks — behind the reach-in, inside the condenser, in the floor drain your closers stopped checking months ago.
Critical · immediate closure
A forced shut-down
Pest evidence, a cooler in the danger zone, or a backflow at the sink can stop service the same day — sales gone, crew sent home, the closure posted publicly for every regular to see.
A dropped grade in the window
A low score becomes a placard on your door and a number on every delivery app — and covers quietly move next door.
How fast an inspector finds what you walked past all month.
Of the findings in this course are preventable before an inspection.
What does one bad inspection actually cost you?
No abstract compliance talk. Drag the slider to your average day and watch the gap: the sales you lose if you’re shut down, against the one-time cost of preventing it.
Closures commonly run 1–3 days while you correct and pass a re-inspection.

One forced day off costs 36× the price of this course. Catch a single gasket, gap, or missing log first — and it’s already paid for itself.
Three things I found in real kitchens this week.
Every one would have cost the owner points — or a closure. Every one was invisible from the floor and obvious the moment you know where to look.

A torn cooler gasket
One tear lets warm air in, ices the unit, and drifts the inside out of safe holding temperature — a fast way to fail.
A gap under the back door
A worn sweep and a small wall gap is an open invitation. Pests use it for weeks before anyone spots droppings.
Blank temperature logs
Empty sheets tell an inspector nobody’s checking — and a quick visit becomes a line-by-line teardown.
Why learn this from a repair tech, not a consultant?
Consultants read you the code. I’m the one who shows up after the inspection to fix what got flagged. I see the same five or six problems over and over, kitchen after kitchen — so I built the walk-through I wish every owner did before I ever got the call.
- ✓Hands-on in 100+ commercial kitchens every month — I know what actually breaks.
- ✓Every module is a real fix or a real check, shown on real equipment, in plain English.
- ✓No fluff, no theory — if it won’t cost you points or money, it’s not in the course.
Eight short modules. One pass through your kitchen.
Watch in order or jump to what worries you most. By the end you’ll walk your own line like an inspector would.
