Violation descriptions and comments

This is a partial inspection due to a complaint to our Dept. stating on 3-14-09 they thought they saw a possible cockroach on the wall of this
establishment in the dining room.
The owner stated that the previous owner did have roaches, and for two months before they opened they had J&M Pest Control Co. come out once a
week for roach treatment. They now come once a month for pest control. The owner has not seen any roaches since they opened. She will call
her pest control company today and have them come out to check out the building and to take effective measures against this problem if there
is one.
I didn't find any roaches during todays inspection, but I informed owner to replace the missing cove base on the wall and floor juncture where
it is missing, and to clean out the drain in the dishwasher area.

There were several open glasses of soda in the food prep area, which is prohibited. Provide covered beverage cups for the employees
drinking cups.
