Correction: Store in-use utensils or dispensing utensils in one of the following manners: 1) In the food with their handles above the top of the food and the container. 2) In food that is not potentially hazardous with their handles above the top of the food within containers or equipment that can be closed. 3) On a clean portion of the food preparation table or cooking equipment only if the in-use utensil and the food-contact surface of the food preparation table or cooking equipment are cleaned and sanitized every 4 hours. 4) In running water of sufficient velocity to flush particulates to the drain. 5) In a clean, protected location if the utensils are used only with a food that is not potentially hazardous. 6) In a container of water if the water is maintained at a temperature of at least 135°F.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
Observation: FOOD in the sandwich prep unit both top and under and the homestyle refrigerator cold holding at improper temperatures.
Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. Both units adjusted during inspection.
