General Comments

Establishment sources its food from several local farmers for meat, cheese, mushrooms and produce. All were verified as either USDA or NCDA during the visit. Owner holds a NCDA permit as a cheese manufacturer. Most meats and cheeses are only used for NCDA items. All dehydrated and packaged items are inspected by NCDA. Half of the back kitchen is separated for NCDA. Several items are prepared at this location and sent to the 7th street location. Items to be verified by Health Department in front of house: house-packaged panko, house-packaged olives, house made bread. Establishment uses 6-hour TPHC for the entire pasta prep cooler.
