​Most would agree, owning and running a restaurant is hard work and one aspect of that work is ensuring food safety is maintained. To celebrate these efforts, every year the Sacramento County Environmental Management Department (EMD) recognizes Sacramento County food facility operators who have achieved three consecutive health inspections without major violations during National Food Safety Month.

Unannounced inspections are conducted by EMD up to three times a year at food facilities to enforce health code compliance and prevent foodborne illness. These food establishments range from restaurants, retail markets, schools, bakeries and bars, and more than 600 of them countywide earned an Environmental Management Food Safety Award of Excellence certificate.

EMD Director Val Siebal said, “The award recipients have clearly demonstrated a continuous commitment to high standards of food safety in their establishments.”

Of those 600+ honored, one establishment from each of the five Sacramento County supervisorial districts has been chosen to receive their certificate at the September 15 Board of Supervisors meeting.

District Representative Honorees:

  • District 1 - Connie’s Drive-In located off Marysville Blvd has been a local favorite with a loyal customer following for everything from their double jumbo burger to fried ham and egg sandwich.
  • District 2 - Burgess Brothers’ BBQ, Burgers and More in Land Park on Sutterville Road is owned by twin brothers, one a firefighter, the other is in law enforcement. These native Sacramentans’ motto is “committed to service” and along with that commitment they’re serving up good ol’ BBQ comfort food.
  • District 3 - Skip’s Kitchen along El Camino Ave in Carmichael has a mission to serve traditional favorites with a gourmet twist at a fun neighborhood eatery. Offerings include, burgers on brioche, NY steak sandwiches with gorgonzola sauce, heaping fresh ingredient salads and mini beef wellingtons – now, that’s gourmet! 
  • District 4 - Karen’s Bakery & Café in Folsom has a fresh-is-best, seasonally changing menu that features gourmet food in a casual setting. The bakery is based on European baking traditions and the sophisticated house-designed cakes use only pure, natural, real ingredients.
  • District 5 - Peter’s Steakhouse located in a historic Isleton building offers a friendly atmosphere and great food alongside the Sacramento River. Peter’s has a banquet room for special occasions and is known for its slow-roasted prime rib.

Is your favorite food establishment a recipient of the 2015 Award of Excellence for Food Safety?
