There is a single unisex restroom for employees and customers. Seating is limited to 15 minus the number of employees. Some seats will need to be removed by the time of the first routine inspection. The new owner stated that he may remove the 1-vat prep sink at the front service area. This is allowed, as it is not a necessary piece of equipment in that area of the operation. If more prep table space is provided, the prep table may not be closer than 18" to the handsink. If it must be closer, a splash guard must be installed on the handsink. The 3 vat sink is to be used from right to left due to the way the plumbing was installed below the sink. Signage is provided. **Approval is hereby granted for the issuance of a Health Department Permit. This inspection report shall serve as your permit until the official permit is received.
