The purpose of this visit was to conduct a 30 day routine inspection. The food supplier is Sysco. Observed good datemarking and overall clean facility. EHSS discussed the following with the person in charge (PIC): 1. Employee health, Form 1B is used and reviewed by employees. 2. Ensure all food items are stored at least 6 inches off the floor. 3. Equipment not being used shall either be repaired or removed from facility within 90 days. 4. The reach in freezer (RIF) on the cookline has been repaired.
- Food Storage Containers - Identified with Common Name of Food (corrected on site)
Observation: Unlabeled food containers of flour and sugar.
Correction: Label working containers with the common name of its contents. Consumers may be allergic to certain foods or ingredients. The mistaken use of an ingredient when the consumer has requested that it not be used may result in severe medical consequences. Liquid foods and granular foods may resemble cleaning compounds. The mistaken use of food from an unlabeled container could result in chemical poisoning.
- Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site)
Observation: Ambient temperature or pre-chilled sliced tomatoes observed not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Observed at 52°, after being silced 4 hours prior.
Correction: Cool potentially hazardous foods prepared from pre-chilled ingredients or ingredients at ambient temperature to 41°F or below within 4 hours. 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. PIC discarded tomatoes.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Hot Holding* (corrected on site)
Observation: Sausage (77°) hot holding at improper temperatures above the grill.
Correction: Hot hold potentially hazardous food at 135°F or above to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. PIC discarded sausage.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
Observation: Ham (47°), turkey (47°), butter (48°), provolone (48°), mozarella (52°), and milk (47°) cold holding at improper temperatures in the prep unit. Pancake batter observed at 80° on counter.
Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below. Per the PIC, the prep unit was open for an hour. Items were relocated to the walk in cooler. Pancake batter was discarded.
- Critical: Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Disposition* (corrected on site)
Observation: According to the ""consume by"" date on the prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) Chicken, Pot Roast, Ribs, and BBQ in the refrigerator, the food should have been discarded 2-4 days ago.
Correction: Discard the food at this time and ensure all prepared RTE food is served, sold or discarded by the ""consume by"" date. 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. PIC discarded food items.
- Equipment - Cutting Surfaces
Observation: The cutting board(s) along the prep line are heavily scratched and scored. The food contact surface is no longer easily cleaned and sanitized due to condition.
Correction: Resurface or discard and replace the cutting boards to provide a food contact surface that is smooth, easily cleaned and sanitized.
- Equipment and Utensils, Air-Drying Required (corrected on site)
Observation: Multiple cups were found stacked while wet after cleaning and chemical sanitization.
Correction: Items must be allowed to drain and air-dry before being stacked or stored to allow evaporation of chemical sanitizer and moisture that may encourage microbial growth.
- Plumbing System Maintained in Good Repair
Observation: Employee restroom toilet in poor repair.
Correction: Repair and maintain all plumbing components ans fixtures.
- Floor and Wall Junctures, Coved, and Enclosed or Sealed
Observation: Floor wall juncture by and under the walk in cooler is not coved and closed to no larger than 1/32 inch space. Observed wall under walk in cooler in poor repair and without coving.
Correction: Cove floor wall juncture to no larger than a 1/32 inch space.
