12/21/2015Routine
Hand washing sink available with warm water, soap, and towels. Sanitizing wiping cloth solution available at 100 ppm. Reviewed food safety information with PIC: cooking and cooling temperature requirements
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site)
    Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) FOOD in the refrigeration units 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.
  • Equipment - Food Contact Surfaces, Nonfood Contact Surfaces, and Utensils
    Observation: Observed accumulations of dust, dirt, food residue or other debris on the following nonfood-food contact surfaces: Shelves under prep tables are dirty.
    Correction: Maintain nonfood-contact surfaces of equipment clean.
  • Physical Facilities in Good Repair
    Observation: Physical structure is not maintained in good repair. Floor tiles in kitchen are loose and missing.
    Correction: Maintain physical facilities in good repair. Poor repair and maintenance compromises the functionality of the physical facilities.

    Observation: The following equipment food-contact surfaces were observed soiled to sight and touch:
    Sides of the deep fat fryer and wall and floor behind equipment.

  • Premises - Maintaining Premises - Unnecessary Items and Litter
    Observation: Facility is storing unnecessary items to the operation or maintenance of the establishment.
    Correction: Remove all unnecessary items from the facility. The presence of unnecessary articles, including equipment which is no longer used, makes regular and effective cleaning more difficult and less likely. It can also provide harborage for insects and rodents.
