Throughout the facility there are potentially hazardous foods that have a discard date that is incorrect. They're not counting the day it is prepped as the first date. For instance, there was something labeled 2-1 with a discard date of 2-8. The discard date should be 2-7. You must have a procedure explaining how to date label, then have all employees go over this. I want to see documentation of this.
Observed employee improperly washing their hands. They did not use a paper towel to touch the handle of the faucet. Employees must be trained on how to properly wash hands. You also need to verify all employees can properly wash their hands. I need documentation of this.
There was an open cup in the kitchen labeled Flako. Employee drinks should have a lid and a straw to help prevent contamination of hands.
The handle on the reach in cooler called Everest has a broken handle. Also some of the shelving in the walk in cooler is rusted.
Handles to reach in coolers and freezers need cleaned. The outside of the chest freezer and ice machine are very sticky.
There are cups stacked wet in the kitchen.
The door was propped open. Employees should not leave it open so they can come in and out throughout the day.
There is coving missing behind the 3-compartment sink.
The floor is dirty around the ice machine and chest freezer.
The wall is damaged in the mop sink room. There is also a missing ceiling tile in this room. The wall behind the hot holding area looks as if it's stained or been burned.
The wall has black buildup behind the 3-compartment sink.
No certified food manager was at the facility at the time of the inspection. I spoke with an employee who wants to take the class. I will email the schedule of classes.
There are no cool down charts. Also the latest temperature charts are from 1-16. Per employee the new cook took them home. I need to see 2 weeks of completed temperature charts including cool down. I will email an example of cool down charts.
