  • KDA_3_30412C - --The large ice scoop is stored on the top of the ice machine, which is dusty and not sanitized.
  • KDA_3_30511A1 - --Multiple containers of food are open, with no lids or coverings, in the glass-dr RIC in the kitchen (diced ham, onions, sliced tomatoes, sliced potatoes, baked potatoes, etc.). There is a condensation leak/drip in this cooler, and an accumulation of water is found on top of some of the containers which do have lids. The shelves are soiled and molded - the uncovered food is not protected from contamination.
  • KDA_3_50114A1 - --In the glass-door reach-in-cooler (RIC) in the kitchen 3 large plastic containers of white gravy are cooling over 2 hours, per owner, and are 86F to 114F.

  • KDA_3_50116A2 - --In the glass-dr RIC in the kitchen - baked potatoes 46F, white gravy 44F. This appears to be caused by close proximity to large containers of hot mashed potatoes and gravy, bringing up the temperature of these items. Removed all the hot food from the cooler, and spread these items to allow more air circulation and rapid cooling.
  • KDA_3_50118A1 - --In the glass-dr RIC, hot dogs are dated 10-19, and gravy is dated 10-20. Held over 7 days. COS by VD

  • KDA_4_20211A2 - --There are cracks and open holes in the interior plastic surface of the Admiral RIC. Cooked potatoes are in a cracked, broken dish tub. Ham steaks are in a cottage cheese container with a cracked lid.
  • KDA_4_60111A - --There is an accumulation of water, food debris, and mold on the bottom of the Admiral RIC. Sheet pans stored as clean on a shelf below a work counter are soiled with crumbs and debris. Plates for customer orders, stacked on a shelf below the steam table, are soiled with crumbs and food debris. There is a build up of crumbs and debris in the bottom of the ice cream freezer. Three knives are stored in a slot between the steam table and the front cutting board, and the slot is visibly soiled with food debris build-up.

COS on most of these items, but not on the RIC.
  • KDA_4_60111C - --There is a build up of greasy food residue and soiling all over the plastic salad bar, including edges, shelves on the ends, interior and exterior surfaces. There are food splatters and debris on the underneath side of the pie case, which is directly over the salad make-table. The front of the small ice machine (not in use), where the soda fountain dispensers are located, has a build up of sticky beverage residue. There is a build up of dirt, food residue, and debris on the outside of the white RIC in the kitchen, and on the outside of both microwave ovens. The insides of the shelving units holding bread and buns under the window are splattered and soiled, with a large trash can right in front of them. There is a build up of grease on the pipes over the griddle/deep fryer.
  • KDA_4_90311A - --Clean plates for customers are stored stacked with the food contact surface up, on soiled wood shelves in the kitchen, just above an open trash receptacle. Plates have visible splatters and soiling from the use of the trash can.
