Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Repeat ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Written procedures were not maintained in a food establishment using time only| as a public health control. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Salmonella C. perfringens B. cereus S. aureus Listeria

When food spends too long in the temperature 'danger zone' (41°F-135°F), bacteria can multiply to dangerous levels in hours. Some bacteria produce toxins during this time that survive reheating — the damage is done even if you cook it again.

Critical Repeat 20 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils used with potentially hazardous food were not being cleaned when contamination may have occurred. [Repeat]

Critical Repeat ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Inspection — 05/14/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F — Weighs on Current
Critical ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts 05/14/26

Using time only as a public health control| food was not marked or otherwise identified with the time within which it would be cooked | served | or discarded.

Safe Bite Analysis Salmonella C. perfringens B. cereus S. aureus Listeria

When food spends too long in the temperature 'danger zone' (41°F-135°F), bacteria can multiply to dangerous levels in hours. Some bacteria produce toxins during this time that survive reheating — the damage is done even if you cook it again.

Critical ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts 05/14/26

Employee did not wash hands and exposed portions of arms at appropriate time.

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Hepatitis A Shigella Salmonella STEC

Unwashed hands are the #1 way restaurant workers spread Norovirus — which causes half of all food poisoning outbreaks. An infected worker can carry billions of virus particles; it only takes a few to make you sick.

Safe Bite Analysis Shigella Salmonella E. coli
