Board of Health Failure - Chipotle in Derby
This entire restaurant is a Salmonella outbreak waiting to happen. In fact, my daughter threw up after eating here. I'm just now making that connection.
Every surface was a complete mess. Every table in the dining room looked to have been neglected for hours. The floors were a mess. The soda station nozzles did not appear to have been cleaned. The cutlery station was a mess with food everywhere. Even if the customers are this messy, someone needs to clean and sanitize frequently.
The prep area was a mess. It needed to be broken and thoroughly cleaned, particularly between the sneeze guard and the rest of the station. How do they not have mice with food stuck in all those places?
The service bar was a nightmare with food all over the stations and new orders being dragged though it. It appeared that the goal was to see how a big of mess they could make.
One employee over filled three taco with rice. Another scooped out the excess by hand and threw it back in to rice bin to be served again. That should have been put in the trash.
To be fair, one employee was checking on holding temperatures, but given that she used the probe several times in the same container it is likely that she was untrained in its use or was hoping for a suitable result to record.
I shudder to think what the walk in might look like.
If this location continues to be allowed to operate like this, I have serious concerns about eating anywhere that is controlled by the Board of Heath in Hingham. read more
