Repeat deficiencies. Obtain chlorine test strips.
- Critical: Cooling*
Observation: PHF's not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
Correction: Cool potentially hazardous foods from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours and within a total of 6 hours from 135°F to 41°F. 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.
- Sanitizing Solutions, Testing Devices (repeated violation)
Observation: There is no properly working test kit provided in the facility for monitoring the concentration of the chemical sanitizing solutions.
Correction: Obtain a chlorine chemical test kit so that employees can accurately monitor the concentration of the sanitizing solutions and maintain them at a safe and effective level.
- Critical: Equipment and Utensils - Before Use After Cleaning* (repeated violation)
Observation: The food-contact surfaces of equipment is not sanitized because they don't use chemical test strips to measure the sanitizer concentration.
Correction: After cleaning and rinsing of the food-contact surface, the surface shall be effectively sanitized at 50- 100 ppm chlorine before coming in contact with food and before use.

Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) foods in the refrigeration unit are 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.
