- Critical: Packaged and Unpackaged Food-Separation, Packaging, and Segregation/Preventing Food and Ingredient Contamination (corrected on site)

Correction: Food shall be protected from cross contamination by separating raw animal foods during storage, preparation, holding, and display from: (a) Raw ready-to-eat food including other raw animal food such as fish for sushi or molluscan shellfish, or other raw ready-to-eat food such as fruits and vegetables, and (b) Cooked ready-to-eat food.

Observation: Container of pineapple observed stacked on top of container of uncovered onions.
Correction: Food shall only contact surfaces of: (A) Equipment and utensils that are cleaned as specified under Part 4-6 of this Code and sanitized as specified under Part 4-7 of this Code
- Equipment and Utensils/Durability and Strength (repeated violation)
Observation: Emerson microwave is not commercial.
Correction: Equipment and utensils shall be designed and constructed to be durable and to retain their characteristic qualities under normal use conditions. Equipment and utensils must be designed and constructed to be durable and capable of retaining their original characteristics so that such items can continue to fulfill their intended purpose for the duration of their life expectancy and to maintain their easy cleanability. If they can not maintain their original characteristics, they may become difficult to clean, allowing for the harborage of pathogenic microorganisms, insects, and rodents. Equipment and utensils must be designed and constructed so that parts do not break and end up in food as foreign objects or present injury hazards to consumers. A common example of presenting an injury hazard is the tendency for tines of poorly designed single service forks to break during use.
- Outer Openings, Protected
Observation: Gap observed along bottom threshold of side door by walk-in.
Correction: Outer openings of a food establishment shall be protected against the entry of insects and rodents by: (1) Filling or closing holes and other gaps along floors, walls, and ceilings
- Drying Mops
Observation: After use, the mop is not placed in a position that allows it to air-dry without soiling walls, equipment, or supplies.
Correction: After use, mops shall be placed in a position that allows them to air-dry without soiling walls, equipment, or supplies. Mops can contaminate food and food preparation areas if not properly cleaned and stored after use. Mops should be cleaned and dried in a sanitary manner away from food flow areas.
- Poisonous or Toxic Materials/Restrictions/Presence and Use (corrected on site)
Observation: Observed Raid bug barrier spray bottle in kitchen.
Correction: Only those poisonous or toxic materials that are required for the operation and maintenance of the establishment, such as for the cleaning and sanitizing of equipment and utensils and the control of insects and rodents, shall be allowed in the food establishment. This section does not apply to packaged poisonous or toxic materials that are for retail sale. The presence in the establishment of poisonous or toxic materials that are not required for the maintenance and operation of the establishment represents an unnecessary risk to both employees and consumers. Preserving food safety depends in part on the appropriate and proper storage and use of poisonous or toxic materials that are necessary to the maintenance and operation of a food establishment. Even those that are necessary can pose a hazard if they are used in a manner that contradicts the intended use of the material as described by the manufacturer on the material's label. If additional poisonous or toxic materials are present, there is an unwarranted increased potential for contamination due to improper storage (e.g., overhead spillage that could result in the contamination of food, food-contact surfaces, or food equipment) or inappropriate application.
