Vw Krome Stop Exxon in Miami
Last inspected:
19900 Sw 177th Ave, Miami, FL 33187VW Krome Stop Exxon in Miami operates a vended water facility under FDACS regulation. The facility experienced significant compliance issues in May 2025, when an inspector documented 32 violations during a re-inspection visit. Critical findings included single-use gloves worn across multiple tasks without changing between handling unclean materials and food, an espresso machine steam wand not sanitized after more than 4 hours of use, hot-held plantains measured at 130°F (5 degrees below the required 135°F minimum), raw shell eggs stored at ambient temperature rather than under refrigeration in two separate locations, and food employees failing to wash hands between food preparation tasks. The inspector noted that employees corrected violations on site by washing hands, changing gloves, reheating plantains above 165°F, and placing eggs under proper refrigeration. A follow-up inspection on June 3, 2025 found 8 violations, including improper hand washing between food preparation and handling soiled materials, which the employee corrected during the inspection by washing hands after procedures were reviewed. Two focused inspections on March 26 and July 17, 2025 documented no violations, and the most recent inspection on September 16, 2025 resulted in zero violations with lab results provided.
