    Observation: The block cheese in the righ side reach in cooler was cold holding at improper temperatures (47'F)
    Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (repeated violation)
    Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) mashed potatoes in the reach in cooler 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.
  • Nonfood-Contact Surfaces - Corrosion Resistant/Nonabsorbent (repeated violation)
    Observation: The nonfood contact surface of the bare wood of the shelves behind the bar and the bare wood under the beer taps is not corrosion resistant, nonabsorbent, and/or smooth.
    Correction: Nonfood contact equipment that is exposed to splash, spillage, food soiling, or requires frequent cleaning must be smooth, durable, and nonabsorbent.
  • Nonfood-Contact Surfaces - Corrosion Resistant/Nonabsorbent (repeated violation)
    Observation: The nonfood contact surface of the foil lining various shelves throughout the kitchen is not corrosion resistant, nonabsorbent, and/or smooth.

    Observation: The reach in coolers were overstocked and is not sufficient in number or capacity to meet the food storage demands of the establishment.
    Correction: Provide additional refrigeration necessary to maintain food items at 41'F or below or reduce menu. Overstocked equipment does not allow for proper air circulation and/or heat transfer. Improper food storage temperatures are a major contributing factor to foodborne illness.
  • Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment (repeated violation)
    Observation: The chest freezer was observed in a condition that prevents necessary maintenance and easy cleaning. There is a heavy build-up of ice inside of the unit.
    Correction: Defrost the freezer to restore a state of condition that allows for proper operation, accuracy, functioning, maintenance, and cleanability.
  • Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment (repeated violation)
    Observation: The door gasket on the Randell reach in cooler is in poor repair.

Insects and rodents are vectors of disease-causing microorganisms which may be transmitted to humans by contamination of food and food-contact surfaces.
  • Hand Drying Provision (repeated violation)
    Observation: No disposable towels were provided at the hand washing lavatory in the kitchen.
    Correction: Hand drying devices such as individual disposable paper towels, a continuous towel system that supplies the user with a clean towel or heated air hand drying device must be provided at all hand washing lavatories to encourage proper hand washing and avoid employees to drying their hands on their clothing or other unclean materials
  • Physical Facilities in Good Repair (repeated violation)

  • Critical: Animals - Prohibiting Animals*
    Observation: (REPEAT): A dog was noted tied up outside behind the establishment.
    Correction: Prohibit all live animals on the premises of the food establishment. Animals carry disease-causing organisms and can transmit pathogens to humans through direct and/or indirect contamination of food and food-contact surfaces. Animals shed hair continuously and may deposit liquid or fecal waste, creating the need for vigilance and more frequent and rigorous cleaning effort.
