Observations & Corrective Actions

8: Numerous hand washing sinks throughout the kitchen either did not have soap or paper towels or had cooling racks stored in front of them. All hand washing sinks must be properly stocked and easily accessible. I will be back within 10 daya for a follow-up inspection to verify this violation has been corrected.

26: Large chemical spray bottle with clear liquid not properly labeled. Chemical spray bottle with red liquid not labeled. I will be back within 10 days for a follow-up inspection to verify this violation has been corrected. This violtion also has been noted on 2 consecutive inspections. A warning letter will be requested.

31: Raw chicken prepped 3.5 hrs ago in breading station temping at 55 degrees. Pic stated that ric has been having issues with the compressor. Bottom of cooler was temping fine but top was not. Suggested closing the lid, ice bath for chicken, or placing chicken in bottom part of cooler. Cooked noodles and sliced tomatoes prepped this morning barely within cooling temp range. Cooler has no lid to keep things better cold. Also suggested ice baths/bags or a lid.

37: Employee personal belongings stored on bread parchment paper in breading station. Employee personal drinks stored on food prep table.

53: Damaged walls and floors throughout the kitchen.
