No Violations At Time Of Inspection. No violation noted during this evaluation. | 03/08/2016 | Routine | |
Much improvement from last inspection. Continue to monitor cold holding temperatures, storage of raw foodss, and sanitizer concentrations. Old dishmachine was removed and establishment to use the 3-C sink for wash, rinse, and sanitizing of dishware items. Sprouts kept in smaller portions and on ice bath (ensure that more ice is used to surround the entire container). No raw foods stored above ready to eat items today. Sanitizing test strips were ordered and in use.
- Outer Openings - Protected (repeated violation)
Observation: Outer opening of the food establishment is not protected against entry of insects, the screen door is 3" smaller than the actual door.;Protect the food establishment against the entry of insects and rodents by 1. Filling or closing holes and other gaps along floors, walls, and ceilings, 2. Closed, tight fitting windows, and 3. Solid, self-closing, tight-fitting doors. Insects and rodents are vectors of disease-causing microorganisms which may be transmitted to humans by contamination of food and food-contact surfaces.

07/09/2015 | Follow-up | |
Follow-Up Inspection Required. Provided handwashing signage, food contact surfaces and sanitizing log, and demonstration of knowledge requirements. Due to dishmachine not working properly, all dishes will need to be rewashed and sanitized utilizing the properly setup 3-C sink. Provided person in charge some sanitizer testing strips and I showed how to use a three compartment sink. Instructed that food safety risks of storage of different raw meats, cold holding temperatures, and employee health. Instructed to properly store meats and protect foods from cross contamination. Supervisor contacted about inspection observations.
- Critical: Demonstration of Knowledge*
Observation: The person in charge failed to explain the correct procedures for cleaning and sanitizing utensils and food-contact surfaces of equipment.
Correction: Ensure the designated person in charge (PIC) is knowledgeable about foodborne disease prevention, Hazardous Analysis Critical Control Point principles and Regulation requirements. The PIC should be prepared to recognize conditions that may contribute to foodborne illness. The PIC must also recognize conditions that fail to comply with Regulation requirements and be authorized to take the appropriate preventive and corrective actions to ensure that the Regulations' objectives are fulfilled.
- Critical: Food - Packaged and Unpackaged - Separation, Packaging, and Segregation*
Observation: Raw meats/ eggs being stored in fridge in a manner that may cause cross contamination of to ready-to-eat food (RTE).
Correction: Separate raw foods during storage, preparation, holding, and display from RTE food in.RTE food such as vegetables, and cooked RTE food need to be above raw foods. Person in charge to re-organize the fridge units to store foods properly.
- Critical: Food Contact with Equipment and Utensils* (corrected on site)
Observation: Food in contact with equipment or utensils that have not been cleaned or sanitized as required.
Correction: Use only cleaned and sanitized utensils or equipment during food preparation. All dishes and utensils to be re-washed and sanitized. Temporary fix in place, service call to repair dishmachine is needed for correction.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
Observation: Sprouts cold holding at improper temperatures, 76F.
Correction: Discard the food and ensure that potentially hazardous foods for cold holding are maintained at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
- Sanitizing Solutions, Testing Devices
Observation: There is no properly working test kit provided in the facility for monitoring the concentration of the chlorine sanitizing solutions.
Correction: Obtain a chlorine test kit so that employees can accurately monitor the concentration of the sanitizing solutions and maintain them at a safe and effective level.
- Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
Observation: Zero chlorine sanitizing solution at the dishmachine. Also, quat sanitizer at 3-C was <100 ppm.
Correction: Adjust the chlorine sanitizing solution to a level of at least 50 parts per million and quat to 200 ppm. Service call placed for dishmachine and another quat tab added to sink. Stressed importance of checking levels with a test kit.
- Non-Food Contact Surfaces (repeated violation)
Observation: The nonfood contact surface of the dishmachine, side of cook top, etc has accumulations of grime and debris.
Correction: Clean the surface at a frequency necessary to preclude accumulation of soil residues that become encrusted or attract insects and rodents.
- Outer Openings - Protected
Observation: Outer opening of the food establishment is not protected against entry of insects, the screen door is 3" smaller than the actual door.;Protect the food establishment against the entry of insects and rodents by 1. Filling or closing holes and other gaps along floors, walls, and ceilings, 2. Closed, tight fitting windows, and 3. Solid, self-closing, tight-fitting doors. Insects and rodents are vectors of disease-causing microorganisms which may be transmitted to humans by contamination of food and food-contact surfaces.
- Handwashing Signage/Handwashing Facilities (corrected on site)
Observation: A sign or poster that notifies food employees to wash their hands is not provided at all lavatories used by food employees
Correction: Provide a sign or poster that notifies food employees to wash their hands at all handwashing lavatories used by food employees. Gave person in charge stickers for the restrooms.
- Critical: Toxics - Common Name/working Containers of Toxics* (corrected on site)
Observation: Working containers of spray bottles of blue liquid are not properly labeled.
Correction: Working containers of toxic items are to be properly labeled with contents. Identification of these containers with the common name of the material helps prevent the dangerous misuse of the contents. Person in charge to add labels to the spray bottles.

The automatic dish washer is not being used and can not be used until is has been repaired.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
Observation: Bean sprouts cold holding at improper temperatures.
Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.

02/26/2014 | Follow-up | |
- Critical: Demonstration of Knowledge*
Observation: The person in charge failed to describe the symptoms associated with diseases that are transmissible through food.
Correction: Ensure the designated person in charge (PIC) is knowledgeable about foodborne disease prevention, Hazardous Analysis Critical Control Point principles and Regulation requirements. The PIC should be prepared to recognize conditions that may contribute to foodborne illness. The PIC must also recognize conditions that fail to comply with Regulation requirements and be authorized to take the appropriate preventive and corrective actions to ensure that the Regulations' objectives are fulfilled.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding*
Observation: Noodles, bean sprouts and shrimp cold holding at improper temperatures.
Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
- Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness*
Observation: Chlorine sanitizing solution used was not at an acceptable concentration.
Correction: Adjust the chlorine sanitizing solution to a level of at least 50-100 parts per million.
- Critical: Equipment - Food Contact Surfaces, Nonfood Contact Surfaces, and Utensils*
Observation: Knives and strainers were not clean
Correction: Clean and sanitize these surfaces for food contact.
- Non-Food Contact Surfaces
Observation: The nonfood contact surface of the rack where the knives are stored has accumulations of grime and debris.
