It\u2019s the thick of South Florida\u2019s slow summer season, but even without the tourists watching, our Broward and Palm Beach county eateries acted on their best behavior last month.
\nIn July, 115 \u201cgold-star\u201d restaurants and food trucks made the list of perfect inspections because not one violation \u2014 minor, intermediate or high-priority \u2014 was red-flagged at the time of the surprise visit from Florida safety and sanitation inspectors. Inspections typically take place at random every six months to a year.<\/p>\n
In Broward County, 69 eateries earned perfect scores. Meanwhile, in Palm Beach County, 46 passed their inspections without a single incident.
\nThe Sun Sentinel has tallied them all up in an easy-to-read format below.

All restaurants and food trucks listed below have been sorted by city. Those without physical addresses on their Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation inspection reports have been trimmed from the list. Food and drink concessionaires, professional caterers, event planners \u2014 any purveyor that\u2019s not a restaurant, food truck, flea market stall or food hall vendor \u2014 are also excluded from the roundup.
\nIf your city isn\u2019t listed, either no restaurants there were inspected that month, or none earned a perfect score.<\/p>\n
