Good handwashing, monitoring of temperatures, and prevention of barehand contact. Good cleaning schedule in place. Discussed some improvements that could be made. The wall material behind the fish fryers has been replaced with stainless steel, this would be the best material for the wall material behind the warmers and other set of deep fryers. They are getting an estimate to redo the floor in the kitchen. This would be a better option to repair the floor than patching it.

Risk Factor
The facility is being kept clean. Good time control on the hot held items. Good handwashing and prevention of barehand contact observed. Continue to monitor the prep refrigerator to see if it recovers, also may need to clean it out and defrost it. When cooling food, place the food in the walk-in on the wire rack in shallow containers. Do not stack them and only loosely cover them..
Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site) Observation: Food in the small prep refrigerator cold holding at improper temperatures. Hot food items were placed in here to cool and may have raised the temperatures.
Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. Food moved to other units as the temperature of the prep unit continued to rise. Do not use the prep refrigerator until it is able to properly cold hold food.
Physical Facilities in Good Repair Observation: The walls in the kitchen, particularly behind the hot holding unit and cooking equipment are not maintained in good repair. Paint peeled on the ceiling near the cook line.
Correction: Maintain physical facilities in good repair. Poor repair and maintenance compromises the functionality of the physical facilities. Replace the wall coverings in the kitchen as needed. Remove pealing paint to assure an easily cleanable surface.
