Food temperature violations dropped the health score at Dolly’s Farmhouse Restaurant in Austell to 66/U on a follow-up inspection. The restaurant at 4971 Austell Road scored 70/C in November.

Raw eggs in an ice bath were at an unsafe temperature in the kitchen, and lettuce and whipped cream inside coolers were also out of the temperature range. These foods were discarded.

Cooked potatoes were in the reach-in cooler for two hours, but the temperature was still too high for food safety. They were also discarded.

Other items were past their discard dates. Homemade tartar sauce in a cooler had expired in October, and some butter beans were date-marked for Nov. 29. The foods were thrown away.

The potato salad in the walk-in cooler was not date-marked, so it was discarded.

Among other violations, several of the soda nozzles had black buildup.

Dolly’s Farmhouse will be re-inspected.
