minorCode 10Handwashing

Official wording

Adequate hand washing facilities supplied and accessible

Inspector’s notes

Hand sink used for other uses than hand washing

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.

More about handwashing problems
criticalCode 20Food temperature

Official wording

PROPER REHEATING PROCEDURES FOR HOT HOLDING

Inspector’s notes

TCS foods which have been cooked and then refrigerated are not reheated rapidly to 74°C (165°F) or higher. (cheese sauce on the hot holding line at 49F, had been placed on the line 1hr 15min ago, corrected - removed from hot line and placed under refrigeration)

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.

criticalCode 18Cleaning and sanitizing

Official wording

FOOD-CONTACT SURFACES: CLEANED AND SANITIZED

Inspector’s notes

The approved sanitizing solution for manual/mechanical ware-washing is not at the proper concentration. (machine tested at 0 ppm, corrected)

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.

More about cleaning or sanitizing problems

Official wording

Food properly labeled; original container

Inspector’s notes

Containers not properly labeled. (unlabeled spray bottle with water on cook line)

Food came from an unapproved source, was missing required date marks or labels, or was past its use-by date. Knowing where food came from and how old it is helps prevent illness.

More about food source, dating, or labeling problems

More about cleaning or sanitizing problems

Inspector’s notes

Nonfood-contact surfaces have accumulation of soil. (fan on cook line with accumulation of soil)

Official wording

Adequate ventilation and lighting

More about building upkeep issues

Inspector’s notes

TCS food not maintained at 57°C (135°F) or above. (cheese sauce at 120F, corrected - reheated to 165F, hot holding unit was filled more with boiling water)

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.
