  • Critical: Date Marking of Refrigerated, Ready-to-Eat PHF (TCS Food) (corrected on site)
    Observation: The following refrigerated, ready-to-eat, potentially hazardous food that is commercially processed is not used or discarded within 24 hours of when the original container was opened and is not observed to be date marked: Mozzarella cheese was opened on Monday.
    Correction: Refrigerated, ready-to-eat, potentially hazardous commercially processed foods when opened and kept for more than 24 hours cannot have a shelf-life of more than 7 days, including the day of the original container was opened. These food items must be marked with either the "consume-by" date and/or "preparation" date, color-coded labels, or another marking system/method that effectively indicates shelf-life that is clearly understood and properly used by the employees. This date cannot exceed any manufacturer determined "use-by" date based on food safety.
  • Critical: Chlorine Sanitizer Solution Concentration based on pH and Water Temp (corrected on site)
    Observation: When tested, the low temperature, chemical sanitizing warewashing machine was observed with a sanitizing rinse concentration of less than 50 ppm chlorine solution.
    Correction: Immediately discontinue use of the dishmachine. Until the machine is adequately repaired, set up the three-compartment sink to manually wash, rinse and sanitize food-contact surfaces using a sanitizing solution at the proper concentration of at least 50 to 100 ppm total chlorine. Note: Wrong chemical was being used, changed the container and it was sanitizing at 100 ppm. Also, the quaternary ammonia dispenser at 3-vat sink was observed dispensing at 0 ppm. Note: Changed the container of the sanitizer and it was dispensing at 200 ppm.
  • Light Bulbs / Locations where Shielding is Required
    Observation: Light bulbs in the kitchen above the mop sink are not covered by a protective shielding.
    Correction: Provide light bulbs that are shielded, coated, or otherwise shatter-resistant in areas where there is exposed food, clean equipment, utensils, linens, or unwrapped single-service and single-use articles.

    Correction: Potentially hazardous foods (time/temperature control for safety food) shall be held cold at a temperature of 41°F or below unless the permit holder is using "time as public health control" as specified under 3-501.19 to limit bacteria growth. Note: Put all items inside the refrigerator.
  • Critical: Sanitizers, 21 CFR Criteria for Food Contact (corrected on site)
    Observation: The concentration of the chlorine solution was measured at more than 200 ppm in wet wiping bucket near coffee machine. This concentration exceeds the approved limits for use with food-contact surfaces of equipment and utensils in a foodservice establishment.
    Correction: Maintain the concentration of chlorine solution at 50-200 ppm. Verify concentration using the appropriate test kit. Note: Add more water.
