Conway and North Myrtle Beach restaurants were flagged for violations by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control’s recent round of inspections.

SCDHEC routinely inspects restaurants for health violations, and their inspections were up to date as of June 12, 2024. These two restaurants received the worst scores in the recent round of inspections.

Taqueria Antojitos Guanajuato

SCDHEC inspected Taqueria Antojitos Guanajuato June 5, 2024, and found violations. The interior of an ice machine had an accumulation of mildew and mold, and an employee did not follow proper hand-washing procedures.

SCDHEC also found food stored in a residential refrigerator that was not approved for use and also reported that rice, cooked beef, diced pork, and other foods were not stored at proper temperatures.

SCDHEC’s inspection concluded that Taqueria Antojitos Guanajuato must have an onsite follow-up inspection within 10 days and before June 14, 2024. SCDHEC also posted a “C” grade at the restaurant for consecutive violations.

Dirty Dons Oyster Bar & Brill

Li's comments come as China and the European Union prepare to host technical talks on the planned imposition of tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles (EVs) imported into the 27-strong bloc and after the United States unveiled steep tariff hikes on an array of Chinese imports, including EV batteries, in May. "China's production of advanced electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries and photovoltaic products, etcetera, first met our domestic demand, but also enrich global supply," Li said in opening remarks in the northeastern Chinese city on Tuesday.
