A Restaurant with No Leftovers

If you're going to eat it, you've got up to 4 hours. Two hours is the time to get it out of the danger zone if you're going to leave it in the fridge. But if you're going to eat it rather than store it, the guidelines are more lenient.

Have a source for that? I can't find a mention of that anywhere.

I apologize: the USDA uses only the 2 hour rule. The 2/4 hour rule is common in most of the rest of the world, most prominently in Australia, e.g.: https://timestrip.com/2-hour-4-hour-rule-haccp-plans/
