Inspector’s notes
OBSERVED THE EXPOSED HAND WASHING SINK BEHIND THE FRONT BAR CLOGGED AND NOT DRAINING. MANAGEMENT INSTRUCTED TO REPAIR AND MAINTAIN THE HAND WASHING SINK. PRIORITY FOUNDATION VIOLATION 7-38-030(C). CITATION ISSUED.
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.
OBSERVED NO PEST CONTROL LOG BOOK ON THE PREMISES FROM A LICENSED PEST CONTROL COMPANY. MANAGEMENT INSTRUCTED TO PROVIDE A PEST CONTROL LOG BOOK FROM A LICENSED PEST CONTROL COMPANY WITH ALL REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION (IDPH LICENSE, MSDS SHEETS, MAP OF PREMISES WITH BAIT AND TRAP LOCATIONS, ETC.). PRIORITY FOUNDATION VIOLATION 7-38-020(C). CITATION ISSUED.
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.
OBSERVED THE 3-COMPARTMENT SINK AT THE BACK CORNER BAR NEAR THE WASHROOMS BACKING UP INTO THE OTHER 2 COMPARTMENTS WHEN THE WATER IS RUN IN THE LEFT SIDE COMPARTMENT. MANAGEMENT INSTRUCTED TO REPAIR AND MAINTAIN THE 3-COMPARTMENT SINK SO THAT IT DRAINS PROPERLY. PRIORITY VIOLATION 7-38-030(C). CITATION ISSUED.
In plain English
The business had issues with hot or cold running water, plumbing, drains, backflow prevention, or sewage disposal. Some of these, like no hot water, can force a temporary closure until fixed.
OBSERVED NO FOOD HANDLER TRAINING CERTIFICATES PROVIDED FOR BARTENDERS. MANAGEMENT INSTRUCTED THAT ALL FOOD HANDLING EMPLOYEES MUST SHOW PROOF OF FOOD HANDLER TRAINING.
In plain English
A required permit, food safety certificate, trained manager, or posted sign was missing or not current. These show the business is following the rules and has trained staff.
