  • General Comments that relate to this Inspection
    -no otheer violations noted--observations made during busy lunch service--walk-in @ 32 F.; cold drawer; burgers @ 46 F.; chicken breast @ 46-47 F. Freezer foods hard to touch.-cook temp. on burger @ 200 F.; hot-holding beef chili @ 166 F.-chlorine sanitizer in 3 compartment sink @ 75 ppm.; rag bucket @ 100 ppm.; rags properly stored in bucket between use; chlorine test striops available-observed staff washing hands often and at appropritate times; good personal hygiene; all handsinks stocked with soap and paper towels; staff use covered cups with a straw on cook line for water (open cans of soda on cook line are not allowed--did not deduct points but may on future inspections as this is a violation)Areas of concern: 1.) staff do not wear gloves when touching ready-to -eat foods such as buns; lettuce; sliced tomatoes; cooked French fries during placement in containers. There is potential for hand contamination of these foods as a result of viruses that cannot be removed with normal hand-washing. Proposed Regulation changes require glove use for foods that will not uindergo further cooking. (Previous recommendation to change this practice has been made to CFPM who was not present during inspection.)2.) Observed cook touching contaminated paper separating burgers when placing on grill. While cook appears to be diligent about washing hands; this must be done thoroughly between each order to avoid cross-contamination when making up burgers on buns. A system that would avoid potential hand contamination and constant is advisable.3.) Cook temperatures on burgers are never taken even though food thermometers are present. It would be advisable to check cook temperatures at least once/shift. Cook temp. logs are required under proposed regulation changes.Recommended to address areas of concern even though not required under current Regulations.
