The department's words
K07 Proper hot and cold holding temperatures
Chicken tenders and other chicken products stored on one of the hot-holding case were measured at 106. Cole slaw and salad stored on the international station were measured at 65 oF without any time and temperature logs. [CA] All potentially hazardous foods like garlic in oil, cut melons, raw sprouts; cooked foods of plant origin; foods of animal origin and any other food capable of supporting the rapid and progressive growth of infectious or toxigenic microorganisms or the slower growth of Clostridium botulinum shall always be held at 41°F or below or at 135°F or above. If any of these food products are going to be stored at room temperature, time might be used as a public health control with implementing a proper time/temperature control mechanism. Since there was not time/temperature logs for the food items identified, all the food products were voluntarily condemned and destroyed by the chef (COS).

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.
100 means the inspector found no problems. Santa Clara County takes points off for each problem. Big ones take off more.
The county posts a green, yellow or red placard after each inspection, and gives routine inspections a score. In the county's data, a routine inspection with no violations listed scored 100, and the score drops as violations are found. The county's page does not say which scores or findings give each color: ask the department.
