What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.
Recorded 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on February 29, 2024. For example:
FRTE1.2 Are proper cooking and cooling procedures followed?
PestsHigher risk
Signs of mice, rats, cockroaches or flies, or gaps and clutter that let them get in or hide. Pests carry bacteria and can contaminate food and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.
Recorded once on September 15, 2016. For example:
7 - Is the premises free from a pest infestation?
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.
Recorded 2 times on September 15, 2016. For example:
17 - Are written food handling procedures (Food Safety Plan) current and available on site?
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example:
1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

- FRTE1.2 Are proper cooking and cooling procedures followed?
- Observation(s): The final cooked temp log is missing information ( holding or dwell time at a certain temperature) and will need to be improved to show actual observed internal temperatures in the two stages of cooling; For cooked RTE meats ( containing no poultry) the target internal temp of 145°F ( 62.8°C), the minimum dwell time is 4 minutes. This dwell time requirement must also be recorded in the log sheet to show 6.5D ( or 6.5log 10 reduction in Salmonella spp. For Rapid Cooling, " Cooled temp<39°F after 7 hours" may not meet the acceptable cooling rate. One acceptable cooling rate requires that product is cooled from to 54 to 27°C within two hours AND the Total Cooling Time from 54 to 4°C is not greater than seven hours.

- Observation(s): Flies were present throughout the facility. Plenty of areas outside of the facility could pose as a breading ground for flies which makes it difficult to control the fly population inside of the facility, especially when the door is kept open. Some work needs to be done on ensuring to control the flies (and other pests) within the facility to the best of the ability. Please ensure, if using pesticides, that all food and food packaging is protected.
