Inspection findings

Inspection date

Type

Facility was very clean and well maintained.
  • Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Parcooked chicken noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria (cooked to 95 degrees F 2 hours prior to inspection and held in 120 degree F water bath). Voluntarily discarded.
    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.
  • Critical: Equipment and Utensils - Before Use After Cleaning* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The food-contact surfaces of the following equipment were not observed sanitized (the mechanical dishmachine was not dispensing bleach - lines needed to be primed and are not dispensing properly)..
    Correction: After cleaning and rinsing of the food-contact surface, the surface shall be effectively sanitized before coming in contact with food and before use.
