Of 2,806 food businesses in the south east, 112 in the Brighton area were rated 2 or lower (unsatisfactory'). I'd be wary of any shop with less than a 4, tbh.

In comparison, quite a few 5 (excellent) outlets at Brighton Marina..

I'm very wary of any food business below 4 stars. If they don't care enough about the food hygiene they don't get my custom.

I got a takeaway from CodFather Islingword Road on Wednesday night. Only 2 /5 wont be eating there again.

Awwww what!! Sing Li chip shop has gone up to 2.

How disappointing!

I bet it's rubbish now!?!

Badge of honour for that place having a zero rating, I too will be boycotting until it drops to a 1 at the very least. Sad indictment of today's health and safety gone mad culture that Sing Li are penalised for keeping chips in a freezer in the back garden. Next they'll be demanding the deep fried rat option is dropped from the menu. #bad times

Tend to agree with that - however I just noticed Battle of Trafalgar only gat 3 stars.

I guess it's a pub not a restaurant....

It was for them. They were very proud of the fact they had a zero rating and displayed the sticker in their front window. Always used to still have a queue out of the door on a Saturday after games.

People need to man up and grow a set!

My local got marked down because they didn't have a separate sink in the kitchen to wash vegetables! It was at that point I decided the whole system was a load of old bollocks and therefore shouldn't be trusted.

Eat somewhere, if it tastes good and doesn't kill you then go back and eat there again!

I have had many a takeaway from a particular zero rated establishment. Always tasted good, hence repeat visits, and still here to prove it.

Pizza King, Kings Road, Brighton. Somehow managed a 1 star. But the foreign workers don't care as they deal mostly with the 4am drunk crowd who will blame all food poisoning on the alcohol of the night before.

I shall find out later, although I can't se as you could catch much from chips that have been cooked in 1000 degree fat and a picked onion cos vinegar's essentially the same as bleach isn't it.

Yeah that would be the reason

IMHO most independent kebab shops take great pride in their establishments and are to be recommended for even staying open to accommodate the 4am trash. Most British-owned chippies round these parts shut up shop by 9pm to avoid the homegrown drunks.

What about the kebab shop in Midhurst prosecuted for raw sewage found on the premises about 1 year ago? Now, I'm partial to the occasional " gout bandage " but even I draw the line at that. Mainly 'cos of the proprietors name.....Mustafa Dogdu...you couldn't make it up could you? Reported by the Argus ( Arsegas? ) by the way. Fantastic!

I used to work at in residential care, and as we served food, we were inspected under this scheme. A large portion of it is paperwork, the actual hygiene is onl a part of it. You could have great practices, but lose a couple of stars because you don't complete the daily or weekly diaries properly.

Glad I'm not the only person genuinely upset to see Sing Li now has a 2 star rating. I want to visit now to see what changes have been made.

Can you still buy individual chicken nuggets for 20p a pop?
Can you still try and stomach a battered beef burger for less than a £1.
Do the chairs still look like they came out of a skip and have seen 20 years in an office first?
Are the Salt/Vinegar bottles still Panda Pop bottles with holes stabbed in the lid?
Does his kid still sit in the back of the kitchen watching TV?

I NEED ANSWERS.

Important point, my other half was once marked down for this even though the food hygiene was fine. All sorted, then wham ! top billing.
