Inspector’s notes

1. Pico de Gallo in the prep cooler measured at 47F. 2. Taquitos and hotdogs in the bottom portion of the prep cooler measured between 45-50F. The unit's thermometer measured at 32F.

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
