Inspector’s notes
"Preset Tableware
Preset tableware was not protected from contamination by being wrapped, covered, or inverted."

CORRECTIVE ACTION: PIC to assure all TCS foods are disposed of as per Ohio Food Code"
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.
