Hakim 1 Stop Shop reopens in Silver Spring, but inspection records vanish


Hakim 1 Stop Shop
has reopened at 8433 Georgia Avenue in downtown Silver Spring. The convenience store was temporarily shut down by Montgomery County health inspectors for unspecified code violations. These violations had to be corrected, and the premises reinspected by the County, for the business to reopen. 


Intriguingly, neither the original violations nor the successful reinspection can be found in the Montgomery County Food Inspection database. The terms "Hakim" and "8433 Georgia" return zero search results. I then performed an excruciating manual search of the database for all of April and May, and found no trace of either inspection, or even of the required pre-opening inspection from months earlier.
