WIPING CLOTHS; PROPERLY USED AND STORED
Why This Matters
Dirty wiping cloths spread millions of bacteria across surfaces. Cloths used on raw meat spread Salmonella and E. coli throughout kitchen.
What Was Observed
Observed a wet wiping towel lying out on the counter on the cooks' line. Store all wiping towels in a sanitizer solution when not in use.
CA Retail Food Code: Section 114099.6
#40
MINOR
PLUMBING; PROPER BACKFLOW DEVICES
Why This Matters
Without sanitizer, wiping cloths become bacteria breeding grounds. One contaminated cloth can spread pathogens to every surface it touches.
What Was Observed
Observed a drip leak (or condensate drip) from a pipe through an open hole in the ceiling at the far east end of the cooks' line above the bread. This leak is leaking onto the counter of the cooks' prep table. Repair the leak.
