Proper cold holding temperatures
Inspector’s notes
3-501.16 (A) (2) and (B) Time / Temperature Control for Safety Food; Hot and Cold Holding (P); While improvements have been made in this area; chicken and cheese were stacked and stored too highly in grab and go coolers in the outside area and were above 41F.

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.
