- Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness* (corrected on site)
Observation: Quaternary Ammonium sanitizing solution used was not at an acceptable concentration. Observed wiping bucket at 0ppm concentration. Corrected to 200ppm. Quat agent was running low and being pumped through system. PIC corrected issue.
Correction: Adjust the sanitizing solution to 200 parts per million or otherwise identified by manufacturer's recommendations.
- Physical Facilities - Cleaning Frequency and Restrictions
Observation: Facility in the kitchen and back area noted in need of cleaning. Floors and equipment observed with accumulation of dirt and build up of grease and food debris. Recommend a designated day for deep cleaning and a daily cleaning schedule to maintain cleanliness.
Correction: All floors, walls, and ceilings must be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them clean. Cleaning of the physical facilities is an important measure in ensuring the protection and sanitary preparation of food. A regular cleaning schedule should be established and followed to maintain the facility in a clean and sanitary manner.

Observation: Facility is storing unnecessary items to the operation or maintenance of the establishment. Back storage area observed accumulation of debris piles high of boxes and other debris.
Correction: Remove all unnecessary items from the facility. The presence of unnecessary articles, including equipment which is no longer used, makes regular and effective cleaning more difficult and less likely. It can also provide harborage for insects and rodents.

If the food is held at 41°F or below the food shall be served or sold within 7 calendar days. Some harmful bacteria continue to grow even at refrigeration temperatures so limiting the amount of time in storage limits the amount of growth allowed for these bacteria.
- Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness*
Observation: Chlorine sanitizing solution used was not at an acceptable concentration for the dishwasher. Observed at 10ppm
Correction: Adjust the chlorine sanitizing solution to a level of at least 25 parts per million when the pH is at 10 or less and the water temperature is at 120°F. Concentration required at 50 to 200ppm. Recommend not using dishwasher until repairs can be made. Utilize 3 compartment sink instead.
