Dish N Dash Restaurant

Official wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

Measured sliced tomatoes at 48 F within the upper portion of the cook line preparation refrigerator (directly next to belt toaster). [CA] PHFs shall be held at 41°F or below or at 135°F or above. Keep preparation refrigerator closed at all times when not in use. [COS] Lids to the unit closed.

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.
