    Observation: 1) Unwashed vegetables stored over ready to eat food in the walk in refrigerator.
    2) Raw chicken stored over raw sausage and fish in the walk in refrigerator.
    3) Standing water in bottom of preparation refrigerator - containers of food stored in standing water - normally a sign that maintenance is needed.

Move container of ready to eat BBQ from bottom and sanitize bottom of container. Place trays in unit and monitor to see if water gets on trays - call for maintenance. If any item is taken from bottom holding in standing water, sanitize before placing on any food prep surface. Properly storing food made more difficult by lack of space, storage racks completely full with some items stacked on inverted crates.
  • Thawing (corrected on site)
    Observation: Raw fish out on counter thawing for 1 & 1/2 hours temperature checked at 66-67 F
    Correction: Fish taken back to walk in refrigerator.

Thaw potentially hazardous foods by either of the following methods: 1. Under refrigeration that maintains food temperature at 41°F 2. Completely submerged under running water at a temperature of 70°F or below with sufficient water velocity to agitate and float off loose particles in an overflow.

Walk in refrigerator with every space on storage shelving filled, and boxes stacked on inverted crates at the end of the shelving. Improper thawing and improper storage in the walk in refrigerator likely due at least in part to crowded unit, where several items must be rearranged to fit in different items. Cold holding was overstocked and is not sufficient in number or capacity to meet the food storage demands of the establishment.
    Correction: Provide additional cold holding necessary to maintain food items at the correct temperatures 41 F and below for refrigeration and 0 F and below for freezers. Overstocked equipment does not allow for proper air circulation and/or heat transfer. Improper food storage temperatures and improper food storage are a major contributing factor to foodborne illness.

    Correction: Reviewed correct food storage for raw meats in walk in refrigerator. Inadequate space to store all boxes of raw chicken on shelving. Handout given with food storage information. Items on shelving corrected during inspection. Discussed, raw chicken stored against shelving with other foods creates cross contamination risk both for other foods and for the chicken. Additionally, boxes of food stored on the floor creates cross contamination risk if boxes are placed on food preparation surfaces. Suggest additional refrigeration and freezer space.
  • Cooling, Heating, and Holding Capacities (repeated violation)
    Observation: Walk in refrigerator and freezer overcrowded creating storage problems that may lead to cross contamination. Boxes of raw chicken stacked on inverted crate in the refrigerator and leaning on shelving. Boxes of food stored on the floor in the walk in freezer.

    Correction: Provide additional refrigeration, or decrease amount of food on hand and increase frequency of deliveries, or change the menu to allow for consistent good food storage. Overstocked equipment does not allow for proper air circulation and/or heat transfer. Improper food storage temperatures or poor food storage are major contributing factors to foodborne illness.
  • Temperature - Food Temperature Measuring Devices - Provided
    Observation: The Person in Charge could not produce an appropriate food temperature measuring device to verify cooking temperatures of thin foods such as meat patties or fish filets.

Overall good sanitation with some issues that will adversely affect food safety. Facility has added food items for use in the restaurant and in the convenience store area resulting in a shortage of cold holding storage space especially in the walk in freezer and walk in refrigerator. Walk in freezer exceptionally overcrowded, with several stacks of boxes on crates, that have to be moved to get to items on the regular shelving. Walk in refrigerator also with items stacked on crates, and with additional boxes of raw chicken stored in convenience store walk in refrigerator space. When cold holding capacity is not sufficient, facility can - 1) reduce items to be stored, 2) increase delivery schedule to reduce amount of food stored at any given time, or 3) obtain additional refrigeration/freezer space. Staff with good glove use, good overall handwashing with handwashing missed by one staff member, no food touched, and surfaces touched sanitized, sanitizer in place at 200 ppm Cl and used, food contact surfaces clean and good food temperatures. Also noted, fly "trap" installed by pest control operator above the slicer. Please contact pest control to have trap removed. Several staff members with outdated or no Western Tidewater Health District food handler cards. Ensure all staff have current WTHD food handler cards.
  • Critical: Food - Packaged and Unpackaged - Separation, Packaging, and Segregation* (repeated violation)

Ensure staff members who help store foods obtain Western Tidewater food handler cards immediately. Additionally, ensure they receive training in facility on how to properly store foods, with raw meats below ready to eat foods, and unwashed fruits and vegetables below ready to eat foods and separate from raw meats. Raw meat storage is with highest final cooking temperatures at the bottom, and lower cook temps stored above or beside and separate. Additionally, walk in refrigerator is very overcrowded and does not allow for easy rotation and storage of foods. Ensure walk in refrigerator fan and ceiling are cleaned now and routinely to prevent contamination of food.
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: The ready-to-eat (RTE) commercially processed cheeses and sausage in the refrigeration unit was not properly dated for disposition after opening.
    Correction: Mark a "consume by" date on commercially processed RTE foods at the time the original container is opened. 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.
  • Critical: Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Disposition* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Bacon with good leftover labeling, but > 7 days since prep present in the walk in refrigerator, between boxes of cabbage and other food containers. Walk in refrigerator overfilled, and bacon may have been unnoticed.

    Correction: Alter the installation of the equipment to allow easy cleaning under the equipment. Make of the following corrections. 1. Remove the equipment from the establishment 2. Elevate the equipment at least 4 inches off the table 3. Seal the equipment to the table
  • Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
    Observation: The hot box (warming cabinet) gasket is in poor repair. The lowboy freezer with ice build up to the point it must be removed with a hammer for the door to close, and some foods not frozen solid. Frozen clams checked at 28 F stem temp.
    Correction: Repair or replace the door gasket in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. Repairman contacted for lowboy and at facility before end of inspection.
  • Critical: Equipment - Food Contact Surfaces, Nonfood Contact Surfaces, and Utensils*
    Observation: Slicer observed with dried food debris on blade and other surfaces as well as some rusty screws etc. Additionally noted, slicer close to table surface and not easy to move for cleaning. Some utensils on storage shelving soiled with food debris.
