Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site) Observation: Raw shrimp was at 45 F, raw chicken was at 45 F in prep unit. Items removed until unit is properly functioning.
Correction: Discard the food and ensure that potentially hazardous foods for cold holding are maintained at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
Equipment and Utensils - Hot Water and Chemical Sanitizing* (corrected on site) Observation: The ware washing machine was not reachin a temperature that allowed for proper sanitization of utensils. Utensils and dishware was being taken to 3 part sink for cleaning while mechanical ware washing machine was under repair.
Correction: Repair the unit so that achieving a utensil surface temperature of 160°F can be measured by an irreversible registering temperature indicator (e.g. thermolabel and maximum registering thermometer). Discontinue use of mechanical warewashing machine and convert to use of 3-vat sink wash, rinse and chemical sanitization. Use single-service items as deemed necessary if not capable of effective manual washing, rinsing, and sanitization of food-contact surfaces.
Equipment and Utensils, Air-Drying Required Observation: Utensils and dishware were found stacked while wet after cleaning and chemical sanitization.
