Violations Cited

• MINOR 590.003/3-304.13-C

Linens and Napkins Use Limitations (C)

Do not preset the outside tables with nakins and linens too early / before service as flying birds vehicle exhausts can easily contaminate these items

Why This Matters

SEVERE CONTAMINATION: Linens can contain 100,000+ bacteria per square inch after just 1 hour of use. Direct contact with ready-to-eat foods like strawberries transfers pathogens directly to food that won't be cooked to kill bacteria. This is a DIRECT path to foodborne illness.

Code Requirements

STOP using linens on ready-to-eat foods immediately. Use only: single-use paper towels, disposable gloves changed hourly, or dedicated food-contact safe materials. Strawberries and other ready-to-eat items must be handled with gloves or utensils ONLY.

Mass. Code: 105 CMR 590.003 | FDA Code: Section 3
• MINOR 590.004/4-904.13-C

Why This Matters

Code Requirements

Immediate correction required. Follow health code section 105 CMR 590.004. Implement proper food safety procedures. Train all staff. Document corrective actions taken.
