    Correction: Separate raw foods of animal origin during storage, preparation, holding, and display from raw RTE food including foods such as fish for sushi or molluscan shellfish, or other raw RTE food such as vegetables, and cooked RTE food.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Cut tomatoes and grated cheese in cold holding were at improper temperatures.
    Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
08/09/2013Risk Factor
  • Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Large container of tomato sauce was not 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.
