TROPICAL RESTAURANT
67-22 ROOSEVELT AVENUE, Queens, NY 11377 · Restaurant (Latin American)
Résumé des inspections
TROPICAL RESTAURANT a été inspecté 9 fois par NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) depuis le 21 décembre 2022. La dernière inspection, le 2 octobre 2025, a relevé 6 infractions.
Aucune des 9 inspections au dossier n’a été exempte d’infractions. Aucune inspection n'est au dossier pour les 12 derniers mois. Les constats à risque élevé ici concernent : Ravageurs, Contrôle de la température des aliments et Protection des aliments contre la contamination.
Les inspections récentes ont relevé moins d'infractions que les précédentes; le dossier s'améliore donc.
Ce que signifient ces constats
Chaque autorité sanitaire formule ses infractions différemment; nous les regroupons donc selon leur importance pour la salubrité des aliments. Les constats à risque élevé sont ceux que les inspecteurs jugent critiques, car ils peuvent directement rendre quelqu'un malade.
RavageursRisque élevé
Signes de souris, de rats, de coquerelles ou de mouches, ou ouvertures et encombrement qui leur permettent d'entrer ou de se cacher. Les ravageurs transportent des bactéries et peuvent contaminer les aliments et les surfaces; toute activité est donc prise au sérieux et entraîne habituellement une visite de suivi.
Relevé 13 fois dans 5 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 2 octobre 2025. Par exemple :
Live roaches in facility's food or non-food area.
Contrôle de la température des alimentsRisque élevé
Les bactéries se multiplient le plus rapidement entre environ 4 °C et 60 °C. Les inspecteurs vérifient que les aliments froids restent froids, que les aliments chauds restent chauds, que les aliments cuits sont refroidis rapidement et que le personnel dispose de thermomètres précis. Les problèmes de température sont l'une des causes les plus fréquentes d'intoxication alimentaire; ils sont donc considérés comme critiques.
Relevé 7 fois dans 4 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 2 octobre 2025. Par exemple :
Hot TCS food item not held at or above 140 °F.
Protection des aliments contre la contaminationRisque élevé
Cela concerne l'entreposage, la préparation et la présentation des aliments : viande crue séparée des aliments prêts à manger, aliments couverts et rangés hors du sol, rien qui ne coule ou n'éclabousse dedans. La contamination croisée entre aliments crus et cuits est une voie directe pour la salmonelle et E. coli.
Relevé 5 fois dans 4 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 2 octobre 2025. Par exemple :
Food, supplies, or equipment not protected from potential source of contamination during storage, preparation, transportation, display, service or from customer’s refillable, reusable container. Condiments not in single-service containers or dispensed directly by the vendor.
Lavage des mains et hygiène du personnelRisque élevé
Les mains sont le principal moyen par lequel des microbes comme le norovirus passent des personnes aux aliments. Les inspecteurs vérifient que les lavabos sont accessibles et approvisionnés, que le personnel se lave les mains au besoin, porte un couvre-chef et que les employés malades sont tenus à l'écart des aliments.
Relevé 4 fois dans 4 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 25 avril 2025. Par exemple :
20-04: “Choking first aid” poster not posted. “Alcohol and Pregnancy” warning sign not posted. Resuscitation equipment: exhaled air resuscitation masks (adult & pediatric), latex gloves, sign not posted.
Nettoyage et désinfectionRisque élevé
Tout ce qui touche les aliments, comme les planches à découper, la vaisselle et les ustensiles, doit être lavé, rincé et désinfecté. Les inspecteurs vérifient la température du lave-vaisselle, la concentration du désinfectant et l'entreposage des linges. Une mauvaise désinfection laisse les bactéries survivre d'une utilisation à l'autre.
Relevé 3 fois dans 3 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 12 novembre 2024. Par exemple :
Wiping cloths not stored clean and dry, or in a sanitizing solution, between uses.
