"The March inspection turned up eight separate violations at the 646 Vanderbilt Avenue shop, and they paint a troubling picture. According to the NYC Health Department's inspection database, inspectors found evidence of mice or live mice in the establishment's food and non-food areas - one of the most serious possible findings."
"Inspectors also found that the establishment was not free of harborage conditions conducive to rodents, insects, or other pests - a companion violation to the rodent evidence that suggests the underlying conditions inviting infestation had not been addressed. Pesticide was also flagged as being improperly used or stored, or used by an unlicensed individual, with an unprotected, unlocked bait station cited."
NYC health inspectors discovered multiple serious violations at Dough Doughnuts during a March 14 inspection. Evidence of mice was found in both food and non-food areas, indicating an established infestation problem. Food was flagged as adulterated or cross-contaminated, violating the shop's food safety plan. Inspectors identified harborage conditions conducive to rodents and pests, suggesting underlying structural issues. Pesticide was improperly handled by an unlicensed individual with an unprotected bait station. Additional violations included unclean equipment, inadequate food protection, and improper storage of single-service items. The violations collectively warrant a C-grade rating pending a follow-up re-inspection.
