The department's words
26 Approved thawing methods in use

Use one of the following approved methods: - Under potable running water of sufficient velocity to wash away loose food particles using water no greater than 70°F for no more than 2 hours. - In a refrigeration unit at 41°F or below - In a microwave - As part of the cooking process
Food Code 3-501.13
How can a restaurant or home fix this?
4 safe ways
- 1. In the fridge (best): on the bottom shelf in a pan, at 41°F or below. Plan about 1 day per 4–5 pounds.
- 2. Under cold running water: fully covered by water that is 70°F or colder, in a clean sink. Cook right away.
- 3. In the microwave: then cook right away.
- 4. As part of cooking: cook straight from frozen. Allow about 50% more time and probe to the usual temperature.

About this record
The city's open data lists each violation with the department's standard wording. The inspector's own notes are in the report on the department's lookup: search for the name.
Most people don't know what a normal result looks like for a place that's open every day. The ranges use each place's last routine inspection in this area. No other county is mixed in.
San Francisco gives each inspection a result, not a score, so there is no typical range to show.
San Francisco posts a green, yellow or red placard after each inspection. Green, Pass: zero to 1 major violations at the inspection. Yellow, Conditional Pass: 2 or more major violations, corrected at the inspection, and a reinspection follows. Red, Closure: health hazards or major violations that can't be fixed right away. There is no score or letter grade.
