  • Critical: Potentially Hazardous Food, Cold Holding (corrected on site)
    Observation: Half-n-half cold holding at the improper temperature of 45F in "Traulsen" 1-dr refrigerator.
    Correction: Except during preparation, cooking, or cooling, or when time is used as the public health control as specified under section 3-501.19, and except as specified under paragraph (B) of this section, Potentially Hazardous Food (Time/Temperature Control for Safety Food) shall be maintained at 5ºC (41ºF) or less. Bacterial growth and/or toxin production can occur if potentially hazardous food (time/temperature control for safety food) remains in the temperature "Danger Zone" of 5ºC to 57ºC (41ºF to 135ºF) too long. Up to a point, the rate of growth increases with an increase in temperature within this zone. Beyond the upper limit of the optimal temperature range for a particular organism, the rate of growth decreases. Operations requiring heating or cooling of food should be performed as rapidly as possible to avoid the possibility of bacterial growth.
  • Critical: Backflow Prevention, Air Gap (repeated violation)
    Observation: An air gap between the water supply inlet and the flood level rim of the dipper well is not at least twice the diameter of the water supply inlet or less than 1 inch.
    Correction: An air gap between the water supply inlet and the flood level rim of the plumbing fixture, equipment, or nonfood equipment shall be at least twice the diameter of the water supply inlet and may not be less than 25 mm (1 inch). During periods of extraordinary demand, drinking water systems may develop negative pressure in portions of the system. If a connection exists between the system and a source of contaminated water during times of negative pressure, contaminated water may be drawn into and foul the entire system. Standing water in sinks, dipper wells, steam kettles, and other equipment may become contaminated with cleaning chemicals or food residue. To prevent the introduction of this liquid into the water supply through back siphonage, various means may be used. The water outlet of a drinking water system must not be installed so that it contacts water in sinks, equipment, or other fixtures that use water. Providing an air gap between the water supply outlet and the flood level rim of a plumbing fixture or equipment prevents contamination that may be caused by backflow.
  • Intensity/Lighting (repeated violation)
    Observation: The light intensity is below 20 foot candles inside the upright 2-door freezer.
    Correction: The light intensity shall be at least 215 lux (20 foot candles): (1) At a surface where food is provided for consumer self-service such as buffets and salad bars or where fresh produce or packaged foods are sold or offered for consumption, (2) Inside equipment such as reach-in and under-counter refrigerators
  • Critical: Food Manager Certificate and Responsibility (repeated violation)
    Observation: The food establishment is not under the immediate control of a Northern Virginia certified food manager.
    Correction: It shall be unlawful to operate a food establishment unless it is under the immediate control of a Northern Virginia certified food manager
