Have unit checked to ensure all heating elements are working properly. Get drain stoppers for 3-c sink. Shelves in glass door unit have rust. Remove rust. Provide a cover plate for electrical outlet behind chest freezer. Replace stained ceiling tile in storage area with a smooth cleanable tile.
  • Critical: Hands and Arms Cleaning Procedure* (corrected on site)
    Observation: No hot water available at beginnning of inspection. Hands cannot be cleaned with warm water.
    Correction: Provide hot water at all times. If hot water heater is not large enough to supply 100F water at hand sink at all times you must increase the capacity. This to be done as soon as possible.
  • Critical: Food - Packaged and Unpackaged - Separation, Packaging, and Segregation* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Raw ground meat and liver stored above cooked soups in reach in.
    Correction: Store raw meats below cooked foods.

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.
01/21/2016Risk Factor

I do not believe it is safe to have a propane tank used inside the kitchen for the burner. Permit expires 10/31/15. You have several critical violations that need attention. Cooling has been an issue for sometime. With the equipment you have you cannot safely and quickly cool large containers of food. This to be immediately corrected. Write a plan of action to cool your various foods. Call me for reinspection before October 15, 2015.

05/08/2015Follow-up
You have too many critical violations. Some which are repeat violations. It is important to correct these. Cooling must improve. You only have an upright refrigerator or freezer to cool foods. Use an ice bath with stirring for those foods that can be stirred such as soup. Set up specific guidelines for you and your workers to follow to properly cool your menu items. Thawing is being done on the rack or counter. This is improper. Thaw inside the refrigerator or under cold running water. Handsink plumbing is still a problem. Hot water is difficult to turn on. One of your workers did not know how to turn hot water on. Three compartment sink faucet does not reach all three sinks. A pan has been tied to faucet in order for worker to reach the other sinks with water. I was told by worker that this is temporary. This to be repaired. Provide a scoop for ice. Worker ran cup through the ice to fill the glasses. Do not reuse cardboard for secondary food storage. Use cleanable containers. A data log tag was placed into make table. Owner to call me later today to update me on the progress of the reach in unit. It was 47 F before I left.

You need a metal stemmed thermometer that ranges from 0 to 220 F. Get this today. Repair water supply at handsink. Faucets are to work. Top round was found thawing at room temperature. The best way to thaw is in the refrigerator, or as an alternative method thaw under cold running water. Datemarking is a repeat issue. Manager to train staff to datemark ready to eat foods kept for more than 24 hours. Since you do not have a walk in, you are limited in refrigeration space to cool. Do not try to cool large quantities of foods in reach in refrigerators. You may try using ice water baths on some foods that lend themselves to frequent stirring such as soups.

Use smaller, shallow metal pans that are placed on wire shelves and use thermometer to check temperature of food to make sure it cools fast enough. Bacteria can grow in the food if it doesn't cool fast enough and even though the food is heated again before it is served, people that eat the food could get sick from it.
