The restaurant also received violations for “no soap or paper towels located at hand washing sink and “soil buildup inside ice bin.”
The restaurant was also flagged for “potentially hazardous food cold held at greater than 41 degrees Fahrenheit.”
The inspector also observed an employee with “no hair restraint.”
Although the conditions improved when the examiner returned five days later, Burruss still had two violations including cold and hot food that was not stored at the proper temperature.
