No County legal action will result from this inspection.Reviewed the establishment's time as a control documentation and policies with PIC. The establishment keeps a log of initial cooking temperature for the hot held item in the deli case. There is a log then kept for the internal temperatures measured every two hours. If the food item falls below 135*F, it is reheated to 165*F and can only be reheated once. The policy states that the items in the deli case are only kept for four hours and then discarded. Discussed with PIC keeping a sticker on the pans of food of the time it was placed in the deli case to ensure the items do not go over the four-hour time limit.

This address holds 4 food permits
Maricopa County issues a separate permit for each kitchen rather than for each restaurant name, so large properties hold several. Each is inspected and scored on its own. The county does not publish which kitchen serves which venue.
