Inspection findings

Inspection date

Type
  • Nonfood-Contact Surfaces - Corrosion Resistant/Nonabsorbent
    Observation: The nonfood contact surface of the shelving units under the counter at the front grill area was observed with laminate pealed off and exposing the raw under wood or pressboard material which 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.
  • Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
    Observation: The reach in refrigeration unit next to the grill is installed over a sloping drain that prevents the equipement from being leveled out posing a potential safety issue. To correct the issue a wooden block was placed under a leg to level the equipment out which is causing the equipment to be unlevel and leaning up against the wall hindering proper air flow around machine and hindering removal and cleaning of the area under and behind the refrigeration unit.
    Correction: Blocking may be used to level the equipment out, but the equipment must be truly level to ensure adequate operation of equipment, please bare in mind that whatever is used to achieve the blocking must be smooth and easily cleanable, not raw wood. Repair the equipement to restore a state of condition that allows for proper operation, accuracy, functioning, maintenance, and cleanability per Part IV, Article 1 and 2 of this chapter. If unable to repair in place, may look into reloacting refrigeration unit to avoid the drain issue.
  • Floors, Walls, and Ceilings - Cleanability
    Observation: Tile/Concrete flooring had been chipped out to repair/replace drains in floor. Concrete flooring is exposed whichis not smooth and easily cleanable and work created a large depression in the flooring tha can cause standing water and debris and tripping hazards.
    Correction: Repair or replace floor or floor covering to make it smooth and easily cleanable.
