Overview

Our Store in Mount Dora is a convenience store that has been operating without a valid food permit since at least November 2024. A stop-sale order issued November 21, 2024 required the immediate removal of time/temperature-controlled fried chicken after it was found being held at 119°F, below the required 135°F minimum. The product was voluntarily destroyed by management and witnessed by the inspector. During a check-back inspection on the same date, the facility was found to have met sanitation inspection requirements after correcting six violations, including improper hot and cold holding temperatures, missing employee health documentation, and absent vomiting and diarrheal response procedures. A June 10, 2025 focused inspection cited the facility for continuing to operate without a valid food permit; inspector notes indicate the permit renewal process was discussed with management. The facility must submit payment for permit renewal within 10 days through the FDACS online portal or by mailed check or money order.
