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.
Dish machines and three-compartment sinks must be set up with the right sanitizer concentration, and the kitchen needs test kits to verify it. Sanitizer that is too weak leaves dishes looking clean but not actually safe.
On this record, the category appears in 1 of the 2 trailing-year inspections. The written details for each entry are in the state inspection documents linked above.
