Bars will be evaluated at follow-up.

  • Critical: Demonstration of Knowledge* (repeated violation)
    Observation: A food service employee was working in the food service establishment without having a valid food service card.

    Correction: Instruct food employees to clean their hands and exposed portions of their arms immediately before engaging in food preparation including working with exposed food, clean equipment and utensils, and unwrapped single-service and single-use articles and during food preparation, as often as necessary to remove soil and contamination and to prevent cross contamination when changing task.
  • Thawing (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: Improper methods used to thaw chicken wings.
    Correction: Thaw potentially hazardous foods by either of the following methods: 1. Under refrigeration that maintains food temperature at 41°F 2. Completely submerged under running water at a temperature of 70°F or below with sufficient water velocity to agitate and float off loose particles in an overflow 3. As part of the cooking process
  • Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Multiple food items noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
    Correction: Cool potentially hazardous foods prepared from ingredients at ambient temperature to 41°F or below within 4 hours. A longer time for cooling allows an ideal situation for bacterial growth. This has been shown to be the major contributing factor in many foodborne illnesses.
  • Cooling Methods (corrected on site)
    Observation: The methods used for cooling were not adequate.
    Correction: Cool foods by the following methods: 1. Placing food in shallow pans 2. Separating food into smaller thinner portions 3. Using rapid chill cooling equipment 4. Stirring the food in a container placed in an ice water bath 5. Using containers that facilitate heat transfer 6. Adding ice as an ingredient 7. Any other method that can effectively accomplish cooling.
  • Cooling Methods (corrected on site)
    Observation: Food containers for cooling food are arranged so as not allow for maximum heat transfer.
    Correction: Arrange the food containers in the refrigeration equipment to provide maximum heat transfer through the container walls. Loosely cover or uncover the food if protected from overhead contamination during the cooling period to facilitate heat transfer from the surface of the food.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food: Cold Holding* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: Turkey legs, pigs feet, ribs, etc cold holding at improper temperatures.
    Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food; Hot Holding* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: Lima beans, broccoli, mac and cheese, etc. hot holding at improper temperatures.
    Correction: Rapidly reheat the food to 165°F and maintain at 135°F or above through the hot holding period.
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat; Potentially Hazardous Food; Date Marking* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) unidentified cooked meat in the refrigeration unit is not properly dated for disposition.
    Correction: Mark the name and ""consume by"" date on the container of RTE foods at the time of preparation if the food is to be held for more than 24 hours. If the food is held at 41°F or below the food shall be served or sold within 7 calendar days. Some harmful bacteria continue to grow even at refrigeration temperatures so limiting the amount of time in storage limits the amount of growth allowed for these bacteria.
  • Temperature - Food Temperature Measuring Devices - Provided (repeated violation)
    Observation: The certified food manager could not provide a digital food temperature measuring device.
    Correction: Obtain at least one food temperature measuring device so employees can properly monitor the temperature of food items in the establishment.
