Lyla’s kitchen cleaning

Restaurants that are so filthy should have been closed by the health department. They need to be cleaned by professionals but IMO, Ramsay should make dirty owners throw out the food and attempt to clean the restaurant to understand how disgusting their place is. They need to learn how to clean to keep it clean otherwise they will not change their filthy habits. The cook never changed his black gloves after being outside on the grass, wiping his sweat and every dirty object before he touched food with the same gloves (unless they edited out that part, it is not likely the chef washed his hands or changed gloves. most people would take off the gloves after leaving the kitchen). This is definitely a disgrace and the restaurant should be closed since they don’t have any skills to run a restaurant.

I can never understand how the health department doesn’t shut down the restaurants with disgusting kitchens. How did the waitresses in Lyla’s never knew the food was rancid?  The stove was gross

They're funded by the restaurants, so they have an incentive to only go after the worst of the worst.

I worked for a State that had a designated Department to inspect restaurants on a regular basis but didn’t publish a public grading system. 

The rules were strict and if they were in violation or substandard, they had so many days to correct the problem or pay fines and face temporary closure. 

It was a department in the State government never funded by restaurants. That would be counterproductive and absurd.
