Violations:
A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below. The department cites violations of Florida's
sanitation and safety laws, which are based on the standards of U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Food Code. High
Priority violations are those which could contribute directly to a foodborne illness or injury and include items such as
cooking, reheating, cooling and hand-washing. Intermediate violations are those which, if not addressed, could lead to
risk factors that contribute to foodborne illness or injury. These violations include personnel training, documentation or
record keeping and labeling. Basic violations are those which are considered best practices to implement. While most
establishments correct all violations in a timely manner (often during the inspection), the division's procedures are
designed to compel compliance with all violations through follow-up visits, administration action or closure when
necessary.
