Make table now functioning satisfactorily.
No violation noted during this evaluation.
06/15/2015Follow-up
Only issue today is the make table. As noted in the violation section, only the far right top section of make table has the motor compartment under it instead of the make table refr. Could feel a great deal of heat rising from the back of the top right table top section. An exhaust fan built into the motor compartment has been disconnected and is not functioning. When the front panel of the motor compartment was removed the air temperature of the top right table top section dropped approx. 10 degrees in 5 minutes. I think getting the exhaust fan back on line and possibly insulating the bottom of the top right make table section will make big difference, the hot air must be moved from under the cooling compartment(top right make table section). Discontinue use of the far right top section of the make table untill it is repaired and capable of holding foods at or below 41Deg.F.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The meatballs,Spaghetti noodles,sliced turkey and sliced tomatoes on the far right top section of the make table are cold holding at improper temperatures.
    Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. Food temperatures were 45Deg.F to 48Deg.F Items were moved to refrigeration unit. Only the far right top section of the make table does not have the refrigerator under it, it has the motor compartment under it. Much heat from the motor compartment appears to hinder the cooling capabilities of the top right section of the make table.
  • Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
    Observation: The make table was observed in a state of disrepair. The far right section was not holding cold foods at required temperature.
    Correction: Repair the make table 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 the make table, replace it with one that meets the specifications of Part IV, Article 1 and 2 of this chapter.
06/04/2015Routine
Discussed employee health and hygiene. Good handwashing observed.
Very few items would go on a sandwich after it has been heated. Recommended use of tongs over gloves due to how few there are.
When doing bulk prep, ie slicing tomatoes and other vegetables, gloves are a good method of barehand contact prevention.

No violation noted during this evaluation.
12/06/2014Risk Factor
Manager noted need for paper towels at handsink and got a new roll. Keep an eye on this as it needs to be replaced quite often.
Employee could not find single use gloves for handling of ready to eat foods. Discussed other options deli paper and tongs. Employee used deli paper.
Recommend having tongs for tomatoes, lettuce, and other items added to a sandwich after it comes out of the oven.
Facility has a good cleaning schedule as the majority of the facility is very clean. All refrigeration units working properly and ice on the salad bar is at a good level for the food.

No violation noted during this evaluation.
