Sweet!! Nice find E.

I did some armchair archeology, and all I could find was this Board of Health report from 9/10/03:

"III. FOOD CODE VIOLATION: Tiki In Restaurant. Representatives from Tiki In that were present for the hearing were Raymond Wong and Kent Wajara. Denise Boucher presented information regarding repeat violations at Tiki In Restaurant. Ms. Boucher stated that on three consecutive visits to Tiki In within a two day period, large quantities of rice were found to be at room temperature in violation of the 1999 Federal Food Code Potentially Hazardous Food, Hot and Cold Holding which states that potentially hazardous food shall be maintained at 140 degrees or above or at 41 degrees or below. Kent Wajara of Tiki In stated that as a restaurant owner for over 20 years he has never had a case of food poisoning and that he believes Ray Wong, did not completely understand what Denise meant when she told him about the violations. Ms. Boucher stated that Raymond did understand each of the three times when she explained the violations to him and that he continued to violate the order. The Board voted unanimously to require Raymond Wong to attend a Food Safety Certification Course within 90 days."

So, we know that the place is 20+ years old....and we know not to eat the rice when visiting. :)
