Comments

Observed smell coming from grease trap. Grease trap lid under wood slats looks rusted and deteriorated, but difficult to see. The accumulation of stagnant water on top of the grease trap may be contributing to smells. Operator stated grease trap cleaned about one month ago. If i can smell this than your customers can too. Dishwasher ok. Handwash stations ok. Freezer ok. Closure Order issued to operator. Call to re-inspect.
