Every violation on this record falls into one of the state's standardized categories. Here is what each category covers and why inspectors check for it — in plain English, with the trailing-year count for this kitchen.

Employees who are sick must not work with food, and staff must know which symptoms bar them from the kitchen. Ill workers are a leading cause of restaurant-linked outbreaks.
