Ice Scoop Gelato on King's Road in Harrogate has received a 5-star hygiene rating from Harrogate Borough Council, after receiving a 1-star rating last month.
An inspection took place yesterday by a food safety officer from the council to check that the food is safe to eat. 5 is the highest rating and indicates hygiene standards are very good and fully comply with the law.
It followed an inspection on October 8 that found the restaurant required 'major improvement' in the management of food safety and 'improvement necessary' in the cleanliness and condition of the building. It received a 'generally satisfactory' rating for the hygienic handling of food.
An anonymous source sent the Stray Ferret photos of the restaurant's kitchen believed to have been taken before the October inspection. The photos show a dirty fridge and microwave.
A Harrogate Borough Council spokesperson said:
Thomas Graham, manager of Ice Cream Gelato, confirmed to the Stray Ferret that both recent inspections had taken place.
