majorCode 590.004/4-301.11-PFFood temperature

Official wording

Cooling Heating and Holding Capacities-Equipment (Pf)

Inspector’s notes

Refrigerating unit at serving line out of order not in use at this time. Repair.

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.

minorCode 590.004/4-602.13-CCleaning and sanitizing

Official wording

Nonfood Contact Surfaces (C)

Inspector’s notes

Under counter at serving line soiled and with rodent-like droppings. Clean properly.

criticalCode 590.004/4-501.114-PChemicals

Official wording

Manual and Mechanical Warewashing Equipment Chemical Sanitization-Temperature pH Concentration and Hardness (P)

Inspector’s notes

Three Bay Sink- Pre-mixed sanitizer solution registers less than 200ppm QUATs sanitizer. It appears that pre-mixing device is not operating properly. Repair to mantain 200-400ppm QUATs sanitizer.

In plain English

Cleaning products, pesticides, or other chemicals were stored or labeled in a way that could let them get into food. This is serious because chemical contamination can make people sick quickly.

majorCode 590.006/6-501.111-PFPests

Official wording

Controlling Pests (Pf)

Inspector’s notes

Observed rodent-like droppings under the counter at serving line. Provide an IPM report from a licensed exterminator.

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.
