06/11/2015Follow-up
Adequate thermometer, quaternary ammonia sanitizer spray bottles, test kit, and hi-temperature dish machine. Corporate employee health policy is already in place.
Notes:
1. A service call was placed for refrigeration while the inspector was present. The WIC temperature needs to be lowered and the 2-door Delfied rear RIC was frozen up. The 2-door low BA cooler in the coffee area had water ponding in the bottom of it.
2. Strongly encourage management to make it a required part of operating procedures to check the thermometers in all refrigeration units daily. Ideally 2-3 times a day. This way management will have a more accurate read of whether or not equipment is operating correctly.
3. Facility has changed over to trash cans with swinging lids throughout the kitchen area. This is a concern since it greatly increases the odds of staff touching the lid of the trashcan with clean hands or even gloved hands when attempting to discard trash. Increased chances of hand contamination can only cause more problems for food handlers.
4. Verified with chemical supply company that the chemical dispensing units in the store have appropriate backflow/backpressure devices installed in them. A seal was not visible/present on front wall dispenser, but there was one on the device located at the rear of the store.
5. Make sure the hose at the rear mopsink is hung above the floodrim at all times!
6. Forward copies of the store's repair invoices showing the various refrigeration units have been repaired and are functioning normally.

  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding*
    Observation: All food items checked in the cold display case
    Correction: most product in the WIC
  • Critical: Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Disposition* (corrected on site)
    Observation: According to the ""consume by"" date on the commercially processed ready-to-eat (RTE) deli meats and a sauce stored in the panini MUT cooler, the food should have been discarded 5-11 days ago. System for date marking RTE foods made on-site is different from that used for sliced deli meats. One area marks the preparation/cook date while another marks the use by date. Most foods are kept for a max of 5 days, and a few at 7 days. Identified sliced pepperoni was being kept much longer.
    Correction: Discard the food at this time and ensure all commercially processed RTE food is served, sold or discarded by the ""consume by"" date after opening. The date deli meats are sliced count as day 1 when date marking foods and can only be held for a maximum of 7 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. Use a consistment date-marking system that staff understand.
  • Temperature Measuring Devices (repeated violation)
    Observation: There was no temperature measuring device located in the WIC, hot bar display case, two hot boxes, panini MUT, bistro MUT, and pizza MUT cooler.
    Correction: Provide a temperature measuring device in all hot or cold holding equipment used to store potentially hazardous foods so that employees can routinely monitor the ambient air temperature.
  • Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
    Observation: The rear 2-door Delfield RIC (frozen up)

    Observation: The following utensils were observed soiled to sight and touch: metal pans stored on the clean dish shelving were found to have bits of food debris and/or greasy residues on them.
    Correction: Clean and sanitize these surfaces for food contact.
  • Equipment - Food Contact Surfaces, Nonfood Contact Surfaces, and Utensils
    Observation: Observed accumulations of dust, dirt, food residue or other debris on the following nonfood-food contact surfaces: inside the hot boxes (edges, bottoms)
    Correction: spills in the bottom of the 2-door rear Delfield RIC.
  • Equipment - Non-Food Contact Surfaces and Utensils
    Observation: Surfaces of the interior of the coffee bar ice machine had pink and blackish mold.
    Correction: Clean the interior surfaces of the ice machine at any time when contamination may have occurred, at least every 24 hours, before restocking the consumer self-service equipment/utensils, or per manufacturer specifications.
  • Handwashing - Using a Handwashing Lavatory - No Other Purpose (corrected on site)
    Observation: The handwash station closest to the bistro and panini MUT coolers is being used for purposes other than washing hands. Observed an employee filling a container with water at a hand sink. Discarded ice also observed in the bottom of the sink.
    Correction: The handwash facility identified above is to be used for washing hands only
  • Physical Facilities - Cleaning Frequency and Restrictions
    Observation: Chicken room noted in need of cleaning. Build-ups present on the floor, under equipement, on low prep tables, and space between the tiles and wall.
    Correction: All floors, walls, and ceilings must be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them clean. Cleaning of the physical facilities is an important measure in ensuring the protection and sanitary preparation of food. A regular cleaning schedule should be established and followed to maintain the facility in a clean and sanitary manner.
06/10/2015Routine
The operator provided metal probe thermometers, quat test strips and an Employee Health policy during today's inspection.
  • Critical: Time as a Public Health Control* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Prepared and display pizzas in the bistro/cafe area for which time rather than temperature is being used as a control was not labeled or otherwise marked with a 4 hour cook, serve or discard by time.
    Correction: Discard food that is not cooked and served or served if ready-to-eat within 4 hours from the point in time when the food is removed from temperature control. Clearly label or otherwise mark the food with a 4-hour cook-serve or serve by time.
  • Temperature Measuring Devices (corrected on site)
    Observation: There was no temperature measuring device located in the chicken room Delfield reach-in cooler.
    Correction: Provide a temperature measuring device in all hot or cold holding equipment used to store potentially hazardous foods so that employees can routinely monitor the ambient air temperature.
  • Critical: Backflow Prevention Device, When Required*
    Observation: Observed the pre-wash chicken hose extend below the flood rim level of the wash sink basin at the chicken room 3-vat sink.
    Correction: Install an approved backflow prevention device or alter the length of the hose to provide the necessary separation between the water supply and the flood rim level of the sink basin. The minimum allowable separation distance must be at least 2x the diameter of the water supply inlet and at least 1 inch.
  • Handwashing Signage/Handwashing Facilities
    Observation: A sign or poster that notifies food employees to wash their hands is not provided at all lavatories used by food employees ( dining area coffee area and pot washing area)
    Correction: Provide a sign or poster that notifies food employees to wash their hands at all handwashing lavatories used by food employees.
  • Physical Facilities in Good Repair
    Observation: Missing floor tiles were observed in the chicken room, before the fryers.
    Correction: Maintain physical facilities in good repair. Poor repair and maintenance compromises the functionality of the physical facilities.

Additional refrigeration: coffee bar units: 2-door BA low 40F, 1-door BA low 30 F
One broken floor tile noted in the fry side of the kitchen, across from the 3-vat sink. Replace.
As warm weather approaches keep an eye on ambient air temperature of all refrigeration. Thermostats may need to be adjusted.
Suggest keeping portioned fruit cups in the bottom of the MUT coolers or in the WIC during slow periods. The plastic cups act as an insulator and if overstacked/stacked on their sides the holding temperature will be higher.

  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Portioned cups of kiwi and pineapple cold holding at improper temperatures
    Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below.
