📰 News we're reading
• Multiple violations lead to low scores across Augusta establishments (theaugustapress.com) — Recent health inspections turned up a mix of results for Martinez spots, with Starbucks at Kroger, Burger King, Playdates of Augusta, McDonald’s on Columbia Road, Pizza Hut Delivery, and Wendy’s all earning top “A” or perfect scores. The report, covering March 23–28 in Richmond and Columbia counties, highlights where inspectors found serious problems in Augusta but also which nearby restaurants, pools, and cafes are currently meeting every health standard.
