DATA ERROR: PARTIALLY UNLINKED: 1 named-farm signal(s) with no venue_farms.signal_id citation — scored at the neutral 0.6 weight: N25 Ossetra caviar

3 signals are withheld while we re-check the source. They cite a menu capture that failed our plausibility review — a page that didn’t look like a real menu when we re-read it. The claims may well be accurate; we don’t publish evidence we can’t stand behind, and the ranking above was scored before this check, so it still counts them.
