Inspection findings

Inspection date

Type

Notes:
1. Salads and sandwiches are being prepped between 7:30-8:30 am each day. They are stored in a pass thru until meal service begins, and then placed on ice trays. Suggest cooling the products with the lids off and see if this speeds/aids in better cooling. Also suggest 'blast chilling' the foods in the WIF for 10-15 minutes, or at least store the items in the WIC until meal service approaches.
2. Make sure staff are covering the serving line food items between shifts of kids. Hot dogs, cheeseburgers, and chicken sandwiches are always hard to hold hot, but only a few were out on the line. All product in the hot box was well above 135 F and so a violation wasn't written.
3. Only one sandwich and one salad were stored out on the serving line ice tray during the inspection. Suggest having staff rotate the items back into the RIC every 20-30 minutes to help minimize temperature spikes. Only a couple of each item are prepped and sold at this facility on any given day.
4. Door on the dumpster needs to be closed when not being filled by staff.

No violation noted during this evaluation.
