October 17, 2007 (Complaint)


Violations: Comments:
The purpose of today's visit was to conduct a complaint investigation. The complainant was at the establishment on Oct 12 when they noted the food on the buffet was barely warm. Please review the information collected during today's investigation.
1. The CFM was unaware of the complaint.
2. At the time of my visit temperatures of the hot food items on the buffet were taken and all were found to be at or above the minium hot holding temperature requirement of 135F, with the exception of the fried tilapia.
3. The facility will use Time As a Public Health Control for the fried tilapia.
4. The temperatures of the steam table were observed at 185 and 180F and appeared to be operating properly.
5. Per the CFM, the steam tables are turned on first thing in the morning, at 8 am and food is not placed on them until they are at the proper temperature.
6. The thermometer used to check the temperature of items on the steam table was found uncalibrated and was corrected at the time of my visit.
Based on today's inspection, the complaint is not confirmed. However, the facility is reminded to monitor the temperature of all foods at the buffet, including cut melon. The food must be at the proper temperature and remain at the proper time after heatin/cooling and holding. Bacterial growth and/or toxin production can occur if PHF's remain in the temperature "Danger Zone" of 41F-135F too long.

The purpose of today's visit was to conduct a follow-up inspection to verify the repair of the 1 door True reach-in refrigerator in the kitchen. At the start of the inspection the True refrigerator was observed with an ambient air temperature of 38F.
Additionally, the CFM has agreed to use the 1 door True for the storage of vegetables and eggs and to use the 2 door Delfield reach-in for the storage use the 2 door Delfield reach-in for the storage for the storage of cooked products. This will prevent over stocking.
Thank you
