Other than the salad bar, refrigeration units working properly. Until the salad bar is fixed, rotate the foods requiring temperature control every two hours. Food was rotated at 5:30 PM from product in the walk-in, do this again at 7:30 PM, and then the bar is closed at 9:30 PM. When opening tomorrow, rotate the product from the walk-in every two hours until the salad bar is able to hold food at 41°F or lower. A follow up will be conducted to check the unit again.
Keep the ice level up to the height of the sliced tomatoes for the items for sandwiches.

10/29/2015Routine
Good handwashing observed.
Discussed salad bar and pizza prep top. Make sure to only stock up to the cooling line in the pans, otherwise any food above this line will not be cold enough.

    Observation: Food in the salad bar cold holding at improper temperatures. The items that had been on the bar the longest, had reached 45°F.
