    Observation: Foods were "out of temperature" in the cold food prep bar unit in the kitchen. Calamari was at 53 F. Whole soft shell crab was at 56 F.
    Correction: When a potentially hazardous food goes out of temperature, that is above 41 F, it is critical to know exactly when that food went out of temperature. Potentially hazardous foods must to be eaten, or discarded, within four hours of going out of temperature, or there is a risk of foodborne illness. All foods which were in the cold food prep bar unit were voluntarily discarded by the establishment management, at our request. No foods may be stored in this cold food prep bar unit, until it has been serviced/adjusted, and is again capable of holding all potentially hazardous foods at 41 F, or lower, at all times. A service call was immediately placed by the establishment management to have this refrigerator unit serviced.

    Observation: The cold water handle, above the sink basin of the handwashing sink that is located next to the mechanical dishwasher, was not working.
