"The Southern Nevada Health District closed Rincon Catracho, the Mexican restaurant at 4110 Maryland Pkwy., after finding inadequate hand washing facilities during a routine inspection on Sept. 11. Inspectors discovered that the restaurant removed the only hand sink in the kitchen, another sink had no soap, and the women’s restroom had no hot water. Inspectors also docked the restaurant with 33 demerits for expired tamales, plantains, and chicharron; pink slime and black mold in the ice machine; and rodent droppings in the corner of the service area. The restaurant reopened on Sept. 13 with an eight-demerit A grade. The health department previously closed the restaurant last November with 52 demerits." - Susan Stapleton
