The Hawai‘i Department of Health (DOH) Food Safety Branch authorized the reopening of Jade Palace 2 in Kailua-Kona, issuing a green “pass” placard during a recent follow-up inspection.
On Feb 19, Jade 2 received a red placard and required the food establishment to take the following corrective actions:
- Discard all contaminated food products;
- Increase professional pest control operator services and submit the service report to the DOH;
- Thoroughly clean and disinfect all food and non-food contact surfaces;
- Remove unnecessary equipment and supplies to prevent harborage sites;
- Retrain employees on proper food organization and date marking; and
- Have the mechanical dishwasher repaired.
During a follow-up inspection, the DOH determined that all corrective actions had been completed.
