Official wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

Measured broccoli chowder at 113 F and cauliflower marsala soup at 130 F within non-functional soup wells at the self service line. Log stated that the soups were removed from temperature control at 11:30am. [CA] PHFs shall be held at 41°F or below or at 135°F or above. [COS] Soups time marked with a start time. Soups shall be held utilizing TPHC until warmer unit/ electrical has been repaired to maintain soup at 135 F or above.

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.
