Inspector's Report

Reinspection found restroom handwash stations corrected but three violations remain uncorrected. The facility still lacks a food safety manager certification and food handler cards for employees. The dishwasher continues to fail sanitization with 0 ppm chlorine instead of required 50 ppm, and knives remain improperly stored between equipment.
