Inspector’s notes
OBSERVED FOOD CONTAINER OF RAW CHICKEN IN THE 2-DOOR UPRIGHT COOLER (NEAR WOK LINE) AT 48.6F AT TIME OF INSPECTION. INSTRUCTED TO DENATURE AND DISCARD RAW CHICKEN AND MAINTAIN ALL TCS FOOD ITEMS AT 41.0F OR BELOW FOR COLD-HOLDING AT ALL TIMES. APPROXIMATELY 45 LBS. OF FOOD VALUED APPROXIMATELY $120.00 DISCARDED ON-SITE. PERSON-IN-CHARGE DISCARDED AND DENATURED ALL RAW CHICKEN AT TIME OF INSPECTION. PRIORITY VIOLATION. 7-38-005 CITATION ISSUED.
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.
OBSERVED TOTAL OF 4 DEAD COCKROACHES IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS OF THE FACILITY: 3 COCKROACHES BENEATH WOK LINE IN THE MAIN KITCHEN AREA, 1 COCKROACH ON THE FLOOR OF THE REAR STORAGE CLOSET (BENEATH SHELVES). INSTRUCTED TO REMOVE DEAD INSECTS AND CLEAN AND SANITIZE AFFECTED AREAS AND MAINTAIN ALL AREAS OF THE FACILITY FREE OF DEAD INSECTS OR OTHER PESTS.
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.
CONTAMINATION PREVENTED DURING FOOD PREPARATION, STORAGE & DISPLAY
Inspector’s notes
OBSERVED SINGLE-USE PLASTIC BOWL USED AS A SCOOP IN BULK DRY FOOD STORAGE CONTAINER IN THE REAR STORAGE AREA. INSTRUCTED TO REMOVE SINGLE-USE BOWL AND REPLACE WITH A MULTI-USE UTENSIL WITH A HANDLE TO PREVENT CONTAMINATION WHILE SCOOPING AND MAINTAIN.
In plain English
Food was stored or handled in a way that could let germs or other material get into it, such as raw meat stored above ready-to-eat food or uncovered food. Cross-contamination is a common cause of foodborne illness.
OBSERVED HEAVY BUILD UP OF GREASE, FOOD DEBRIS, AND OTHER SOILS ON NONFOOD-CONTACT SURFACES OF COOK LINE EQUIPMENT (WOK LINE, DEEP DRYERS, GRILL). INSTRUCTED TO CLEAN ALL NONFOOD-CONTACT SURFACES OF COOKING EQUIPMENT ALONG THE MAIN COOK LINE AT ADEQUATE FREQUENCY TO PREVENT BUILD UP OF SOIL AND MAINTAIN.
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.
ADEQUATE VENTILATION & LIGHTING; DESIGNATED AREAS USED
Inspector’s notes
OBSERVED INTENSITY OF LIGHTING IN THE REAR STORAGE HALLWAY (LEADING TO EMPLOYEE RESTROOM) TO BE INSUFFICIENT. INSTRUCTED TO REPAIR OR REPLACE LIGHT FIXTURE(S) IN THE REAR STORAGE HALLWAY TO PROVIDE LIGHTING OF ADEQUATE INTENSITY FOR THIS AREA AND MAINTAIN.
In plain English
Floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, ventilation, or garbage areas needed repair or cleaning. These are usually less urgent than food-handling problems but still need to be fixed.
