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.

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on May 31, 2019. For example: 3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 once on December 5, 2023. For example: 1 Does the operator have a valid operating permit or approval to operate?

  • 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 once on October 11, 2016. For example: 1 - Is the food service establishment following the Informed Dining requirements (voluntary program)?

  6. Monitoring

    1 infraction

    • F2.3 - Are equipment, food contact surfaces and utensils washed, sanitized and stored in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?
      • Observation(s): 1. At the time of inspection 2 of the sanitizer buckets has a concentration less than 100 ppm Quat which is less than the 200 ppm minimum requirement. Sanitizer bucket solution concentration should be tested using test strips on site in an as needed basis instead of every 2 hrs and should maintain a concentration of at least 200 ppm Quat. Concentration not maintained at 200 ppm could lead to ineffective killing or inactivation of pathogens leading to potential cross contamination of food contact surfaces 2. An ice bucket was observed to be stored on top of the ice machine with the lid directly contacting the equipment leading to unsanitary condition. This is was corrected at the time of inspection. Unsanitary condition of the ice bucket could lead to cross contamination when being used on ice
