Overview

In the deli, a raw fish filet removed from the fryer had an internal temperature of 74–95 degrees Fahrenheit, which did not meet the required 145°F minimum for 15 seconds; this was a repeat violation. The manager corrected the fish by returning it to the fryer to complete cooking. The most recent inspection outcome is satisfactory compliance.
