Final Score @ Grade
91.50 A
General CommentsThe large can opener that had been deemed unapproved during previous inspections has since been removed from the restaurant. The hot water temperature had been found to be in violation during previous inspections due to a need to repair/replace the water heater. The water heater was replaced since the last inspection. Today the hot water at the hand wash sink next to the ice machine was holding at 109 F and the hot water at the utensil wash sink was 131 F. So, no repeat violations this time for #50 on grade sheet.
