Inspection findings

Inspection date

Type

Notes:
1. If soups are to be prepared/opened and kept over 24 hours then they would also need to be date marked. Deli meats and tuna salad were date marked.
2. Soups must be reheated to at least 165 F within 2 hours, and must then be maintained any where above 135 F. Reheating in crock pots is very difficult to do in a limited amount of time. Suggest heating the soup on a stove or in the microwave and then place it in a crock pot to hold hot.

  • Critical: Reheating for Hot Holding* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The vegetable soup was not reheated to a sufficient temperature and time to eliminate pathogenic bacteria. After two hours in the crock pot, the soup measured 111 F.
    Correction: Ensure potentially hazardous foods that are cooked, cooled, and reheated for hot holding are reheated so that all parts of the food reach 165°F or above for 15 seconds. Food shall be reheated within 2 hours.
10/20/2015Routine
Establishment with an adequate metal food stem thermometer & chlorine test kit. The wiping cloth/sanitizer set up was adequate. Adequate employee health policy in place. Health permit posted & visible.
Note: Cream of broccoli & vegetable soup currently being heated during inspection.

  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat tuna fish in the refrigeration unit is not properly dated for disposition.
    Correction: Mark the name and "consume by" date on the container of RTE foods at the time of preparation if the food is to be held for more than 24 hours. 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.
03/26/2015Routine
No violations were observed at this time. Employee Health (FDA Form 1B) in Spanish was issued and discussed at this time. Also discussed was the load limit/overstocking of sliced cold meats in the front maketable unit to maintain adequate cold holding temperatures of 41 degrees F or below.
No violation noted during this evaluation.
10/06/2014Routine
Adequate thermometer, bleach, and chlorine test kit. Sanitizer water and 3-vat sink not currently setup or in use. Reviewed employee health policy and provided an additional copy for the PIC.
No soup out today.

No violation noted during this evaluation.
05/22/2014Routine
Adequate thermometer, bleach sanitizer water, and test kit. Reviewed employee health.
Notes:
1. Temperatures are borderline in the sandwich MUT cooler. Suggest getting larger pans in the top of the MUT cooler to allow sliced meats to lay flat. This increases the surface area that comes in contact with the cool surfaces. If purchasing new pans also consider getting metal over plastic. Metal transmits temperatures more effectively than plastic.
2. Make sure soup is stirred regularly to help distribute heat. If heating from frozen, consider doing some thawing of the product prior to placing it in the crockpot. Two hours are allowed for heating product to 165 F, and can then be allowed to hold anywhere above 135 F.
3. Drinks with lids and straws are permitted in the food preparation area.
4. Repair the leak to the 3-compartment sink within 30 days.

  • Critical: Eating, Drinking, or Using Tobacco* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Staff observed drinking from uncovered container in the food preparation area.
    Correction: Employees may drink from a closed beverage container if the container is handled to prevent contamination of (1) The employee's hands, (2) The container, and (3) Exposed food, clean equipment, utensils, and linens, and unwrapped single-service and single-use articles.
  • Plumbing System Maintained in Good Repair
    Observation: Plumbing connections under the 3-compartment sink are leaking.
    Correction: Plumbing systems and components shall be maintained in good repair.
12/30/2013Routine
Adequate thermometer and chlorine test kit. Reviewed employee health.
Temperatures of deli meats are not being maintained under 41 F in the sandwich MUT cooler. Minimal product should be stored in the unit since it has a history of not being able to maintain adequate temperatures. All back up portions should be stored in the rear 3-door cooler.
Staff must utilize the chlorine test kit. Sanitizer for food contact surfaces should only be mixed at 50-100 ppm.

  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (repeated violation)
    Observation: Deli meats and tuna salad in MUT cooler cold holding at improper temperatures
    Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below.
  • Critical: Sanitizer - Criteria/Chemicals for food contact* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: Bleach sanitizer water being applied to food contact surfaces does not meet the requirements of 40 CFR 180.940
    Correction: Utilize only bleach water that meet the requirements of 40 CFR 180.940 when applying to food contact surfaces
06/18/2013Routine
The thermostat on the MUT and/ or rear 3-door reach-in-cooler need to be lowered to provide better cold holding temperatures of deli meat. Temperatures of product stored in the MUT cooler will rise when the unit is left open, and all temperatures must be maintained at 41 F or less. Having the meats as cold as possible before bringing them up to the MUT cooler will give the product more of a cushion temperature wise.
Adequate thermometer, bleach sanitizer water (re-mixed upon request), and chlorine test kit. Reviewed employee health.

  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (repeated violation)
    Observation: Deli meats in the MUT cooler cold holding at improper temperatures
    Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below.
  • Critical: Sanitizer - Criteria/Chemicals for food contact* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Bleach sanitizer water being applied to food contact surfaces does not meet the requirements of 40 CFR 180.940 (tested at 200 ppm+)
    Correction: Utilize only bleach water that meet the requirements of 40 CFR 180.940 when applying to food contact surfaces (tests at 50-100 ppm).
02/19/2013Routine
All critical violations must be corrected immediately. Non-critical violations must be corrected within 30 (thirty) days.
  • Temperature Measuring Devices - Ambient Air and Water
    Observation: The ambient (air/water) temperature measuring device (degrees F) needed in every unit.
    Correction: Provide a temperature measuring device that is easily readable and accurate to +/-1.5 degree F in the intended range of use.
  • Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness*
    Observation: Chlorine sanitizing solution used was not at an acceptable concentration.(when tested found at >200ppm)
