Inspection was completed during the breakfast hours. Facility was clean to sight and no signs of pest and rodent infestation. Person in charge (PIC) was knowledgeable about Employee Health and reporting instruction as well as temperatures relating to food borne illnesses. Good glove use and proper handwashing was observed. Facility utilizes a 3 vat sink and the PIC need to utilize test strips to ensure proper concentration for killing pathogens. Handwashing sinks were well stocked however, one in back area needs to be utilized as handwashing use only and needs maintenance. PIC states that temperature is used to monitor foods on serving line. Temps are checked in the morning and the afternoon. Also, two items on serving line temps were observed in the danger zone (prime rib @ 44F and sliced turkey @ 43F). PIC states items were pulled out at 5AM. PIC replaced items in reach in to reduce temps and replaced items for serving line. (within 4 hour rule).
- Equipment - Cutting Surfaces
Observation: The cutting board is heavily scratched and scored. The food contact surface is no longer easily cleaned and sanitized due to condition. Surfaces such as cutting blocks and boards that are subject to scratching and scoring shall be resurfaced if they can no longer be effectively cleaned and sanitized, or discarded if they are not capable of being resurfaced.
Correction: Resurface or discard and replace the cutting boards to provide a food contact surface that is smooth, easily cleaned and sanitized. PIC states that the cutting board in question is the only one at the facility. Recommend not using the cutting board until it is replaced or resurfaced to prevent foodborne illnesses.
- Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness*
Observation: Quaternary Ammonium sanitizing solution used was not at an acceptable concentration. The observed concentration at the 3-vat sink was 0ppm. When redone by the PIC it still read 0ppm. When looking into the situation the PIC is adding to much water to the solution. The manufactures recommendation is 150 to 400ppm.
Correction: Adjust the sanitizing solution to 200 parts per million or otherwise identified by manufacturer's recommendations. Recommend utilizing the test strips available to test solution everytime it is made and through the day because it will break down over time. Too little concentration is not killing pathogens in preventing foodborne illnesses. Also, there is no sanitizing bucket with wiping cloths at prerp area for proper cleaning in between task and use.
- Handwashing - Using a Handwashing Lavatory - No Other Purpose
Observation: The handwash station is being used as a possible dump station. Observed food debris i in handwashing sink in the back. The sink was dirty as well. The water was very slow to drain.
