- Time/Temperature Control for Safety Food, Cold Holding (corrected on site)
Observation: Feta cheese cold holding at the improper temperature of 64F.
Correction: (discarded) - Except during preparation, cooking, or cooling, or when time is used as the public health control as specified under section 3-501.19, and except as specified under paragraph (B) of this section, time/temperature control for safety food shall be maintained at 5ºC (41ºF) or less. Bacterial growth and/or toxin production can occur if time/temperature control for safety food remains in the temperature "Danger Zone" of 5ºC to 57ºC (41ºF to 135ºF) too long. Up to a point, the rate of growth increases with an increase in temperature within this zone. Beyond the upper limit of the optimal temperature range for a particular organism, the rate of growth decreases. Operations requiring heating or cooling of food should be performed as rapidly as possible to avoid the possibility of bacterial growth.
- Water/Pressure/Quantity and Availability (corrected on site)
Observation: Hot water wasn't turned on.
Correction: Water under pressure shall be provided to all fixtures, equipment, and nonfood equipment that are required to use water except that water supplied as specified under paragraphs 5-104.12(A) and (B) to a temporary food establishment or in response to a temporary interruption of a water supply need not be under pressure. Inadequate water pressure could lead to situations that place the public health at risk. For example, inadequate pressure could result in improper handwashing or equipment operation. Sufficient water pressure ensures that equipment such as mechanical warewashers operate according to manufacturer's specifications.
- Handwashing Sink/Using/Operation and Maintenance (corrected on site)
Observation: The handwashing sink had items stored in the basin and is not maintained so that it is accessible at all times for employee use.
Correction: A handwashing sink shall be maintained so that it is accessible at all times for employee use. Facilities must be maintained in a condition that promotes handwashing and restricted for that use. Convenient accessibility of a handwashing facility encourages timely handwashing which provides a break in the chain of contamination from the hands of food employees to food or food-contact surfaces.
- Light Bulbs, Protective Shielding (repeated violation)
Observation: The light bulbs inside the mobile food cart are not shielded, coated, or otherwise shatter-resistant.
Correction: Light bulbs shall be shielded, coated, or otherwise shatter-resistant in areas where there is exposed food
- Cleaning of Plumbing Fixtures
Observation: Hand sink and 3-compartment sink are not clean and/or maintained.
Correction: Plumbing fixtures such as handwashing sinks, toilets, and urinals shall be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them clean and maintained and used as specified under section 5-205.11. Handwashing facilities are critical to food protection and must be maintained in operating order at all times so they will be used.
