- Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
Observation: Deep tub of cooked spaghetti noodles noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
Correction: Cool potentially hazardous foods from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours and within a total of 6 hours from 135°F to 41°F. A longer time for cooling allows an ideal situation for bacterial growth. This has been shown to be the major contributing factor in many foodborne illnesses.
- Critical: Equipment - Food Contact Surfaces, Nonfood Contact Surfaces, and Utensils* (corrected on site)
Observation: The following equipment food-contact surfaces were observed soiled to sight and touch: handle of walk-in refrigerator.
Correction: Clean and sanitize these surfaces for food contact.
