Floors Walls and Ceilings-Cleanability (C)
Inspector’s notes
PIC will need to clean the floor under and behind the cooking equipment. Along the wall in the kitchen and in basement. Shelves in basement had some droppings by the toilet paper. Please clean the wall behond the cooking line.
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.
PIC stated that pest control inspects each week. I review reports. Please have pest control address mice in basement and kitchen and fruit flies in basement. Please have them look ontop of the walk in and the area with a toilet paper storage. As discussed.
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.
