Back employee restroom is poorly maintained.

Tongs used for deep fryer stored beneath grill on surface that is very unclean with old grease and food residual. Drawers to large food preparation cooler on left lower side do not close completely, allowing cold air to escape. Cook line equipment is extremely filthy with grease, food, trash and debris accumulating beneath the equipment on the floor. This is similar to past inspections when cook line was being neglected. As discussed in the hearing in 2012, management needs to confirm that employees are following the cleaning schedule as posted. Due to continual problems with cleaning and maintenance, the probationary period is extended for another year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SUSHI TRAIN<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>8765 Tallon Drive NE, Suite R, Lacey.<\/p>\n<p>Dec. 19: Routine check.<\/p>\n<p>5 red; 5 blue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Comments:<\/strong>\u00a0Red \u2014 Crab meat in small black refrigerator was 45 degrees.
