In the front prep area, the racks for online orders are too close to the paper towel dispenser, there is potential for splash contamination of food on the racks when reaching for a paper towel after handwashing. The paper towel dispenser needs to be moved or the racks should be kept in an alternative location. There was no food on the racks at the time of inspection, this is simply an observation of potential for contamination. In the back prep area, the paper towels are mounted over single-use gloves that are used for food handling. There is potential for contamination of the gloves from dripping hands as employees reach for a paper towel. It is recommended to move the gloves or the paper towels to prevent contamination. During inspection, one employee was observed to turn the water off after handwashing with their clean hands. To avoid recontamination of hands, make sure to use a paper towel or other barrier to turn the water off after handwashing.
