"In the early days of KFP, health inspections were little more than a friendly meeting between well known acquaintances than a regulatory visit. The inspectors had grown accustomed to being treated to an impromptu concert by tenchou whenever they arrived, transforming even the most stern-faced inspectors into enthusiastic fans, their clipboards forgotten as they were swept up in the performance. Reports would come back with perfect scores, adorned with loving doodles of phoenixes and musical notes. 

This changed when a new health department director took over(the last one being let go for having “a bias” towards certain places) - an ornery one who had a dark secret past that caused them to dislike idols. Where previous inspectors wrote glowing reviews, rating the restaurant with top marks every time, this one wrote stern citations about "unauthorized raw poultry in food preparation areas" and "employees demonstrating concerning avian characteristics."
