MAJOR
HOT AND COLD RUNNING WATER AVAILABLE
Why This Matters
Without hot water, dishes cannot be sanitized and hands cannot be properly washed. Allows survival of viruses and bacteria that cause foodborne illness.
What Was Observed
Observed max water temperature of around 114 degrees from all sinks. Repair or adjust water heater so non-handwash sinks have at least 120F. Handwash sinks had warm water of at least 100 degrees.

MAJOR
PROPER HOT AND COLD HOLDING TEMPERATURES
Why This Matters
Temperature abuse causes 63% of foodborne outbreaks. Clostridium perfringens multiplies rapidly between 70-120°F. Listeria grows even at refrigeration temperatures.
What Was Observed
Observed cook line fridge in breakfast prep area with ambient temperature of around 52 degrees. Only produce stored inside, no PHFs. Repair fridge to hold at 41F.
