June 29, 2007 (Other)


Violations: Comments:
The purpose of this visit was to conduct a courtesy inspection prior to a change of ownership.
All violations must be corrected before the change of ownership inspection takes place. The pre-opening inspection may not be conducted more than 7 days prior to the settlement date. Call the Health Department when all violations have been corrected to arrange the pre-opening inspection.
The dishwasher must operate per the manufacturer's specifications. The data plate is not readable to learn what those specifications are. Provide a data plate for the dishwasher. Typically a hi-temp machine operates at 160F wash, 180F rinse and 15-25psi water pressure during the rinse cycle. During this inspection the wash temperature was in excess of 160F, the rinse temperature was 165-170F and the water pressure was in excess of 25psi. It is recommended that a readable pressure gauge be provided on this machine. Other repairs are required per the citations above.
It was observed that a number of refrigeration units measured 40-41F when checked during this inspection - see equipment list above. This inspection was conducted 2-3 hours before the establishment opens for business. It is strongly recommended that the noted refrigeration units be serviced to maintain 35-36F first thing in the mornings. During operating hours a refrigerator that starts at 41F will quickly exceed that ambient temperature, thus putting food temperatures out of range, also. It is also recommended that thermometers be maintained in ALL units that have temperature control - hot or cold.

April 03, 2007 (Critical Procedures)


Violations: Comments:
This is a critical procedures inspection. A pest control company treats every 3-4 week. The grease trap is cleaned every month. The hood is cleaned every 4 months and the filters every week. Bleach sanitizing concentration in the 3-vat sink at the bar is 100ppm. Quaternary ammonia sanitizing concentration in a bucket is 200ppm. Water heaters: 2-State, SDV 100 199 NESHW, 199,000btu, 205gph, total 510gph. Dish machine: Jackson, ES 4400, 234gph, wash 165F, rinse 185F.

Violations: Comments:
The purpose of today’s visit was to conduct a routine inspection at the above named establishment. All critical violations were not corrected during the inspection.

Contact me if any questions arise. Thank you.
IMPORTANT:
1. Adjust, repair or replace the Delfield 2-door reach-in glass refrigerator so that it is capable of maintaining ambient air and food temperatures of 41F or below. In the meantime, do not store potentially hazardous food items within this unit.
2. A CFM with a valid photo ID must be present during all hours of operation, including preparation and cleaning. Absence of a CFM will result in the immediate suspension of the Health Department permit to operate and possible further enforcement action.
3. Maintain food-ctonact surfaces of equipment (e.g. bun toaster) clean to sight and touch and sanitized. Clean equipment at a frequency great enough to preclude accumulations of grime or food debris.
4. Maintain containers of chemicals labeled with the working name of the product so that it may not become confused for another product and possibly contamiante food, equipment, utensils, single service items or linens.
5. It is important that raw meat is stored properly within refrigeration and freezer units to prevent cross contamination. Raw meat should be stored separately from ready to eat foods and from other types of raw meat. If stored on the same shelving unit within refrigerator and freezer units, raw meat should be stored as follows:
TOP SHELF: All pre-cooked and ready to eat foods (e.g. vegetables)
SECOND SHELF: Raw seafood/raw eggs/raw pork
THIRD SHELF: Raw ground beef
BOTTOM SHELF: Raw chicken
REMINDERS: 1. Employees shall wash their hands frequently at hand sinks using warm water and soap. It is the duty of the CFM to monitor handwashing activities. 2. Employees shall handle ready-to-eat food properly using utensils and/or wearing disposable gloves that are changed often. 3. Monitor food, refrigeration and freezer temperatures. Use your calibrated thermometers to ensure food is held at 41F or below and 135F or above. 4. Maintain pest control services as needed. Keep records of all services provided. 5. If applicable, maintain grease trap and hood filter cleanings on a regular basis. Keep records of all cleanings performed. 6. Discuss with your employees illnesses and symptoms that would prevent them from coming to work (e.g. vomiting, diarrhea, fever, etc.). 7. Contact the Health Department before making any changes, additions, and/or renovations to the establishment or existing equipment.
NOTES TO THE OPERATOR:
The Fairfax County Health Department has an Enforcement Policy aimed to bring establishments in continued and repeat and/or flagrant violation into compliance. A Notice of Violation will be sent to your establishment if:
a) Critical violations cited in a routine inspection remain uncorrected at the time of a follow-up inspection
b) A violation has been cited three consecutive times within an eighteen month period
To avoid further enforcement action, which may result in the revocation of the permit to operate, have all repeat and critical violations corrected at the time of a follow-up inspection or at the next routine inspection.
The Fairfax County Health Department adopted the 2005 FDA Food Code as of September 1, 2006. The adoption of this code may affect your establishment. For more information on the 2005 FDA Food Code, go to http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/foodcode.html or contact the Health Department with any questions.
