- Cooling Methods
Observation: Food containers for cooling food are arranged so as not allow for maximum heat transfer. Tuna made about 1 hour ago was put directly on top of cold bain in a covered, deep container (45 F) and also is in a covered, deep container in the under counter refrig (52 F)
Correction: Arrange the food containers in the refrigeration equipment to provide maximum heat transfer through the container walls. Loosely cover or uncover the food if protected from overhead contamination during the cooling period to facilitate heat transfer from the surface of the food. Suggest placing tuna in pre-chilled containers once it is made and make sure it is 41 For below before it is placed on top of the bain.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
Observation: Cold holding at improper temperatures:top layers of portioned steak (48 F), portioned teryaki chicken (44 F) and portioned chicken (45 F) are unable to maintain 41 F or below because they are in paper boats and are stacked on top of each other with deli paper in between each layer. The portioned steak in right beside the hot holding wells.
Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. Lids were placed on the portioned food items and the steak was moved to another location farther away from the hot wells. They will make sure these food items are used or discarded within 4 hours and will monitor temperatures to make sure they maintain 41 F or below with the lids on.
- Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site)
Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) tuna, sliced tomatoes and portioned chicken in the refrigeration unit are not properly dated for disposition.
Correction: Mark the name and "consume by" date on the container of RTE foods at the time of preparation if the food is to be held for more than 24 hours. 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. Food dated during inspection.
- Light Bulbs Protective Shielding
Observation: Light bulb in walk-in refrigerator is not shielded, coated, or otherwise shatter-resistant.
Correction: Shield or replace light bulb with a coated or shatter-resistant bulb.
