minorCode 590.003/3-501.13-CFood temperature
Official wording
Thawing (C)
Inspector’s notes
ROP fish observed thawing in packaging. Discontinue.
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.
Floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, ventilation, or garbage areas needed repair or cleaning. These are usually less urgent than food-handling problems but still need to be fixed.
ROP machine observed in prep area. Cooked potatoes and other food products observed in reduced oxygen packaging. No HACCP plan on site. Provide HACCP plan to health division for approval. Email isdhealth@boston.gov with HACCP plan.
In plain English
An issue that does not fit the common categories. Check the official wording for details.
