The soup was about 124f but there were colder spots at 120f. Per manager it was low earlier as well. The soup was voluntarily disposed of. Discussed either doing time instead of temperature or heating up individual servings.
Observed employee improperly washing their hands. He touched the handles of the faucet with his hands instead of using a paper towel. This is the same hand sink that doesn't have paper towels in the dispenser. I did have an employee put a roll but it's not at the actual hand sink. The person in charge went over how to properly wash hands with the employee. Another employee did wash their hands properly.
Found no chlorine sanitizer in dish machine. It was tested twice with both mine and their test strips. Maintain at 50-100 ppm. Dishes must be sanitized in 3-comparment sink until corrected. In the documentation employees are recording temperatures and not the concentration of sanitizer. It says to document the concentration. I pointed this out to the person in charge.
There is food debris on surfaces on the grills and grease. It is very important to clean these areas regularly due to the pest issue. The handles have buildup in them. The outside of the pans used on the stove have a lot of buildup on them.
Found no paper towels at handsink by dish machine.
Dumpster lid was open at time of inspection. There was snow that had accumulated in the lid that was open.
In the kitchen under the flap top I observed what appeared to be a roach. In the pest invoices they were last out to the facility 12-28 and they checked traps for rodents. It didn't say anything on the report about spraying or the target pest being roaches. Discussed contacting them to see what they last sprayed and making sure they're treating for roaches not just mice.
Found 1 unlabeled spray bottle of chemicals and another that had just a couple of letters from the name. The one with the couple of letters I couldn't tell what it said. The spray bottles have an area to check what it is and put the name. The person in charge suspects that the name rubbed off. The bottles were relabeled.
There was garbage on the ground around the dumpsters like empty cups, magazines and cardboard.
