Why a Commercial Mold Inspection needed?

In concentrated amounts, mycotoxins can cause skin blistering, nosebleeds, asthma symptoms, or chest pains, among other things. In extreme situations, they can even cause shock and death.

Ichiban Sushi has relocated to 4928 NW 39th Ave, Gainesville, FL 32606, in the Magnolia Park shopping center. The new location is more spacious and features an updated decor with cozy and private booths, dim mood lighting, saltwater aquarium, focal-point bar and attractive new menus. We recently tried the new location for the first time and were pleased with the atmosphere and friendly service. I prefer booths to open concept seating and I was very happy to see they invested in a lot of booth seating. There are chairs for people who are uncomfortable in booths and these may be removed for table to be accessible to wheelchairs. I've been a patron at Ichiban for about 20 years and while I love their sushi, I was not a fan of the atmosphere and decor at the previous location. I've been pla... 01/06/2020
