During the follow-up inspection, the inspector noted that the restaurant does not have a handwash sink in the bar area, thus garnishes and lemons for drinks cannot be cut or prep in that area, and dishes and cups cannot be washed in the three-compartment sink unless a hand sink is available for handwashing.
Additional observations:
- The sole sanitizer bucket in the restaurant was not labeled with its common name
- The restaurant’s only chlorine sanitizer bucket prepped in house had a concentration above 100 ppm
- The person in charge was observed handling exposed food items without a hair restraint and while wearing a bracelet and rubber band on her wrist
- A wet wiping cloth was stored next to the grill area
- The most current inspection report was not posted in public view
