Didn't get your fill at the Thanksgiving table? Houston-area restaurants were serving all through the holidays, which means local health inspectors were out keeping tabs for our safety.

Many restaurants serving up Asian cuisine, including Mamak Malaysian (9889 Bellaire Blvd.) and a few Thai Spice locations made this week's list.

One inspector spotted something unsavory -- dead roaches -- in the ice machine at a local Indian restaurant.

That's just a few of some of this week's violations. Click the slideshow above to see some of the notable inspections between Nov. 23-30, 2015.



During health inspections, inspectors distribute violations that carry a weight between 1 and 25, increasing in severity. The Houston Chronicle obtained the results of routine health inspections throughout the city and tallied each restaurant's demerits for a comprehensive list of violations.
