Flies landing on the pizza dough helped this Domino’s get closed by inspection
Though this week’s Sick and Shut Down List will be postponed by technical difficulties, we do have a South Florida restaurant inspection failure that the technical gremlins hid from us last week.
Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation folks buzzed about Miami Gardens, especially Hard Rock Stadium, Super Bowl Sunday. Officially, all those places charging $16 for a Cuban Sandwich and $10 for arepas passed inspection, and nine of them did it with perfect scores.
But a stop a Miami Gardens Domino’s Pizza franchise the Wednesday of Super Bowl Week didn’t come off as cleanly. All quotes come from the inspection.
Domino’s Pizza, 17845 NW 27th Ave., Miami Gardens: The pizza dough in a place with pizza in its name got hit with a Stop Sale.
“Observed 12-plus live flying insects sitting on 10 uncovered pizza dough on the preparation table.” That’ll do it.
Beyond those High Priority violations — the flies and the Stop Sale caused by them — there were violations from cleaning apparently being a low priority task.
“Old food stuck to clean dishware/utensils.” Somebody’s using “clean” really loosely here.
“Observed soil residue in all condiments, and sauces containers.”
“The equipment door handles, reach in coolers, shelf under the preparation table, handwash sink, and the exterior of the pizza oven have food debris, and dust.”
“Interior of reach-in cooler, racks, and shelves soiled with accumulation of food residue.”
“Observed sauce and dirt on wall by reach in cooler.”
