Food Establishments With Violations: Red/Blue/Total
Plaza Jalisco, Chehalis 10/0/10
The walk-in was not quite cold enough, and all potentially hazardous foods were cold holding between 42.5 and 45.1 F. All PHFs must be cold held at 41 F or below. Please adjust the air temperature down so that when the door is opened and closed, foods still stay at safe temperatures. Repair door handle so door can be easily closed. Please contact me when finished, which must be within two days. This is a repeat violation. (5 red)
Please provide the consumer advisory statement on each page where raw or undercooked animal products are offered, including steaks, eggs and any other item. Then add an asterisk to each food item and to the advisory statement. Please correct within one week. (5 red)

Editor’s note: These figures are derived from inspections conducted by the Lewis County Public Health Department’s Food Safety Program.
Red violations are those most likely to cause foodborne illness and must be corrected at the time of inspection. Blue violations relate to overall cleanliness and operational conditions and must be corrected by established deadlines or by the next routine inspection.
Any establishment receiving 40 red points or any red point item repeated within an 18 month period is considered a high risk and must be reinspected. An establishment that receives 75 red points or 100 total points (red and blue) on a routine inspection or 40 red points on a repeat inspection will have their food establishment permit suspended.
