6 recorded violations

criticalCode 590.003/3-501.16-PFood temperature

Official wording

(A)(2) and (B) Time/Temperature Control for Safety Food Hot and Cold Holding (P)

Inspector’s notes

Cooked chicken 47F. Product made one hour prior placed on indirect contact with ice to cool. COS.

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.

Official wording

Food Labels (Pf)

Inspector’s notes

Cookies not labeled and salad. Provide proper labels.

In plain English

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.

Nonfood Contact Surfaces (C)

Inspector’s notes

Dust on lamp shades and ceiling above service line. Clean to remove.

Inspector’s notes

Inspector’s notes

Bug zapper in back room. Provide unit that keeps the insects contained. Consult pest control provider.

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.
