In plain English
The inspector found mice, rats, cockroaches, flies, or evidence of them (like droppings) inside the business, or conditions that could attract them. Pests can spread bacteria to food and surfaces, so this is treated as one of the more serious findings.
MISSING PAPER TOWELS AT THE HAND WASH SINK NEAR THE WALK IN COOLER. [CA] PROVIDE PAPER TOWELS AT ALL TIMES. COS
In plain English
Staff were not washing their hands when required, or a handwashing sink was blocked, missing soap or paper towels, or used for something else. Hands are one of the most common ways germs reach food.
FOUND THE FLOOR UNDER THE CABINETS WITH EXCESSIVE GREASE. [CA] CLEAN THE FLOORS MORE OFTEN.
In plain English
Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.
FOUND THE ICE CREAM FREEZER WITH FOOD DEBRIS AROUND AND INSIDE THE FREEZER. FOUND FOOD DEBRIS IN THE UNDER COUNTER CABINETS NEAR THE ICE CREAM FREEZER. FOUND THE ICE MACHINE WITH CALCIUM BUILD UP AND MOLD LIKE SUBSTANCE ON THE OUTSIDE. [CA] CLEAN THESE AREAS MORE OFTEN.
In plain English
Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.
Equipment, utensils, linens: Proper storage and use
Inspector’s notes
FOUND A PAPER CUP BEING USED AS A SCOOP FOR THE SUGAR. [CA] USE FOOD GRADE WASHABLE SCOOPS WITH A HANDLE AND KEEP THE HANDLE OUTSIDE THE FOOD.
FOUND THE CO2 TANKS BY THE ICE MACHINE, NOT FASTENED TO A RIGID STRUCTURE. [CA] FASTEN CO2 TANKS. COS
In plain English
Equipment, utensils, thermometers, cutting boards, or single-use items were not in good condition, not the right type, or not stored properly.
FOUND THE TAMALES AT 125F AND THE BEANS AT 112F. [CA] KEEP THE POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS FOOD AT 135F OR ABOVE. COS: THE BEANS AND THE TAMALES WERE REHEATED TO 165F.
In plain English
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.
