Inspection findings

Inspection date

Type
NOTE: Good job storing chemicals separate and below ready-to-eat foods and clean/sanitized dishware and utensils. Great job thawing in the walk-in cooler. Also great job storing raw in-shell eggs and meats below and/or away from ready-to-eat produce. Pooled eggs are being held beside the grill in a tall container held on ice - please ensure ice is covering the outside of the container up to the same level the liquid eggs are held on inside the container to help ensure this is kept 41 degrees F. or below. Please observe employees and train employees on cross contamination - specifically if their gloved hand or a utensil touches a raw meat or contaminated surface that no ready-to-eat food should be touched until glove or utensil is changed. Left the January 2016 ServSafe food handler handout and encouraged firm to have several cooks or food prep staff to attend.
  • Critical: Equipment - Food Contact Surfaces, Nonfood Contact Surfaces, and Utensils* (corrected on site)
    Observation: An employee was observed using a utensil to handle raw and/or partially cooked eggs and raw sausage and then used the same utensils to remove cooked foods from the grill.
    Correction: Clean and sanitize these utensils between working with raw and ready-to-eat foods OR have utensils designated for touching raw meat and then a different utensil for removing the fully cooked meat from the grill. Fully cooked items are likely being cross-contaminated with raw animal products which could cause illness.
  • Non-Food Contact Surfaces (repeated violation)
    Observation: Several cooler doors/knobs have an accumulation of a greasy, sticky residue.
    Correction: Clean the cooler doors/knobs at a frequency necessary to preclude accumulation of food build up and residues
12/18/2015Routine
Discussed cooling methods and raw shell egg situation with PIC in detail. PIC stated that raw shell eggs were a new process that employees were unfamiliar with.
  • Cooling Methods
    Observation: Observed cracked shell eggs in walk in cooler out of temperature, also observed employees cracking eggs and allowing them to sit at room temperature while they were being strained. PIC stated that after this process, the eggs are placed in a plastic container and covered, and put into the walk in cooler.
    Correction: Keep eggs in temperature (41 degrees F or below) while they are being cracked and strained by doing this in the walk-in cooler, or cool them quickly (within 2 hours) to 41 degrees F or below in walk-in cooler by putting them in metal pans and leaving them uncovered while they cool.
  • Non-Food Contact Surfaces
    Observation: Observed several greasy handles on cold holding equipment.
    Correction: Keep handles free of food build up and grease residue.
  • Equipment and Utensils, Air-Drying Required
    Observation: Observed dishes that were stacked wet.
    Correction: Allow dishes to air dry before stacking.
07/22/2015Routine
NOTE: Good job storing chemicals below/away from foods. Great job keeping raw meats below/away from ready-to-eat foods in cooler. Reminder for employees to wash hands with soap & water for at least 15 seconds prior to putting away clean dishes AND prior to putting on gloves. Discussed washing (with soapy water) food contact surfaces, then sanitizing. Left & explained person in charge and CDC risk factors for food borne illness handouts.
  • Temperature Measuring Devices
    Observation: Multiple coolers did not have accurate, working, visible thermometers in the warmest part of the unit (usually near the door).
    Correction: Place temperature measuring devices in the warmest part & in a visible location of all cold holding units.
  • Plumbing System Maintained in Good Repair
    Observation: The only handsink in the kitchen is in disrepair as the knob that turns the water on/off is broken off and the sink is coming off of the wall.
    Correction: Repair this handsink to encourage proper handwashing for at least 15 seconds with soap & water. Ensure sink is caulked flat against wall. *Work order is in to address sink*
01/29/2015Routine
No violations noted during today's (5/5) inspection. NOTE: Observed good hand washing. Walk-in cooler was clean & well organized. Good job date marking & labeling food. Left an employee health policy & discussed using soapy water to wash food contact surfaces before sanitizing.
