11/06/2014Routine
There was no active cooking at time of inspection, only preperation of cold cut subs. Overall facility appeared clean and well maintained
No violation noted during this evaluation.
03/26/2014Risk Factor
Overall clean well organized facility with good food temperatures, overall good storage, pan of raw beef stored slightly over ready to eat BBQ and moved to bottom shelf. Dish machine not operating as needed to clean and sanitize dishes has been repeatedly noted routinely during inspections. Please ensure maintenance company repairs or replaces machine and contact health department when done. Some catering equipment, ie large coolers and boxes of single service containers stored on floor making good cleaning in those areas difficult. Store items on shelving off of floor.
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (repeated violation)
    Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) lunch meats, and commercially prepared creams etc. in the refrigeration units are 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.
  • Critical: Warewashing - Manual & Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization - Temperature, pH, Concentration & Hardness* (repeated violation)
    Observation: Facility dish machine with temperature gauge not working and no residual for sanitizer even after primed. Machine not in use today, but in current condition would be considered unsatisfactory for cleaning and sanitizing dishes.
