  • Hair Restraints - Effectiveness
    Observation: Employees observed working in the food service area without proper hair restraints.
    Correction: Ensure all employees wear hair restraints such as hats, hair coverings or nets, beard restraints, and clothing that covers body hair, that are designed and worn to effectively keep their hair from contacting exposed food, clean equipment, utensils and linens, and unwrapped single-service and single-use articles. This section does not apply to food employees such as counter staff who only serve beverages and wrapped or packaged foods, hostesses, and wait staff if they present a minimal risk of contaminating exposed food
  • Critical: Shellfish - Shellstock - Maintaining Identification* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The tags for a bag of small clams stored in walk-reefer were not available or are discarded immediately after container is empty.
    Correction: Ensure the tags remain attached to the shellstock container in which they were received until the container is empty. Operator contacted approved vendor and produced a copy of the tags for the inspector.
  • Critical: Hands - Preventing Contamination from Hands* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Employees observed handling ready-to-eat (sandwich) food with their bare hands.
    Correction: Provide suitable utensils such as deli tissue, spatulas, tongs, single-use gloves, or dispensing equipment to handle RTE food to prevent contamination from hands. Chef used gloves during the remainder of the inspection.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Hot Holding* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Crab soup hot holding at improper temperatures at 128F on steamtable.
    Correction: Rapidly reheat the food to 165°F and maintain at 135°F or above through the hot holding period. Chef removed crab soup held under 4 hours and rapidly reheated to correct hot holding temperature.
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) chicken and bbq 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. Chef date marked all food items during inspection.
