Need to work on date marking. Discussed corrections needed to the consumer advisory..
- Critical: Hands - Preventing Contamination from Hands* (corrected on site)
Observation: Employees observed handling ready-to-eat (RTE) food with their bare hands (while making sandwiches).
Correction: Provide suitable utensils such as deli tissue, spatulas, tongs, single-use gloves, or dispensing equipment to handle RTE food to prevent contamination from hands.
- Food Storage - Clean and Dry Location (repeated violation)
Observation: Food stored in the walk-in cooler and walk-in freezer on the floor or food stored less than 6" above the floor.;Elevate food storage onto approved shelving with minimum 6" legs or casters.
- Food - Miscellaneous Sources of Contamination (corrected on site)
Observation: Left over bread used to make croutons was being stored under the handwash sink by the mechanical dishwasher and was subject to splash. Relocated.
Correction: Protect food from miscellaneous sources of contamination.
- Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site)
Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) in the refrigeration units were 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.
- Equipment - Cutting Surfaces
Observation: The cutting board(s) along the prep units are heavily scratched and scored. The food contact surface is no longer easily cleaned and sanitized due to condition.
Correction: Resurface or discard and replace the cutting boards to provide a food contact surface that is smooth, easily cleaned and sanitized.
