The person in charge voluntarily discarded all TCS foods in the sandwich style cooler units and replaced all the TCS foods with stock from the walk-in refrigerator.

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.

Insect Control Devices Design and Installation (C)
Inspector’s notes
In the basement prep kitchen observed two glue hanging glue traps for flying insects in use directly above foods and handwashing sinks; bug capture devices should be designed to not contaminate food or food contact surfaces or handwashing sinks.
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.
