Non-closure inspection­s of note About this list

-

Here are selected inspection­s at facilities that weren’t closed but had other significan­t issues. New China Express, at 1211N. Waterman Ave. in San Bernardino, was inspected Sept.7in response to a foodborne illness complaint from someone who said they got very sick two days after eating a shrimp plate. The inspector found several violations: The manager said shrimp is cooked to 135degrees, not 145as required by health code. Some raw shrimp, chicken and beef were at unsafe temperatur­es in a refrigerat­or that wasn’t keeping cold. A cooked dish containing shrimp wasn’t being kept hot enough. And an employee didn’t wash hands after handling money. The restaurant was not issued a grade; its most recent score was an 81/B in May — its fourth B or C grade since 2019. The inspector returned Sept. 8to confirm that the refrigerat­or and hot holding table were keeping food at safe temperatur­es.

Charley’s Burger, at 16867Arrow Blvd. in Fontana, was inspected Sept. 8and received a grade of 78/C with two critical violations.

Inspectors visit food facilities for routine inspection­s, followups and complaint investigat­ions. In graded inspection­s, the facility starts with a score of 100and can lose between 1 and 4 points for any of about 50 health code violations. A grade of 90or above is an A, 80-89 is a B and 79 or below is a C. Riverside County considers B and C grades to be failing; San Bernardino County does not have a pass/fail system. A facility will be closed if the inspector finds an imminent health hazard that can’t immediatel­y be corrected.
