Stitch incoming Not this motherfucking shit just open That's the fish I'm about to cut up right now but look at this shit JD dropped this on the floor and put it in here and I guarantee they gonna use it later Now that's the Jim 'N Nick's off of Oxmoor, right? And they've recently had a health score rating of 80. And I've started to see an influx of Birmingham restaurants that are starting to close because they've received poor health score ratings. So I'll compile the list of places that have less than 90. The Pink Lantern in Birmingham has a health rating of 85. Waffle House on Montclair Road has an 86. Applebees in Vestavia, 82. The Garden Cafe at the Botanical Gardens has an 82. Vineyard Food Market has an 82. Lots of little bugs running around there as well. Yoe Xpress on the Southside, 77. The T.M. Food Mart located on Shuttlesworth Drive, 78. Hotspot on Dennis Avenue, 53. Do you know how nasty that place has got to be for you to receive a 53 health score? But what blows my mind is all of these places are still up and running, allowing customers to come in knowing damn well they're not up to par. So I've created this list so that you can either eat there at your own risk or choose to find other better options. And if I have missed anything, feel free to drop it in the comments.
