- Observed heavy dust accumulation on the hood filters above the grill area.
- Observed an accumulation of black filth inside soda fountain nozzles in the front counter area.
- Non-food contact surfaces not cleaned at a frequency to preclude accumulation of dirt and soil. Observed mineral like build up in the interior corners of the low temp dish washer.
