Comments:
The purpose of today's visit was a critical procedures inspection. Thank you for correcting all critical violations during the inspection. Do not spray pesticides or put out rodent bait on your own. It may allow toxic chemicals to be spread to food and food contact surfaces. Presence and use of these chemicals also interferes with the pest control service you are paying for a. Frequent and aggressive cleaning of floors and drains, especially under equipment, allows current pest control services to be more effective. Adequate cleaning prevents competition for the baits used by the pest control service to control pests. If you plan on selling your business, you may contact the Health Department at 703-246-2444 to arrange an inspection where an EHS senior will discuss changes that need to be made in the physical facility before a food permit would be approved for a new owner.

Comments:
This visit was made to conduct a routine inspection. Please review the following comments: 1. All critical violations were corrected during the inspection. 2. All remaining violations must be corrected before the next routine inspection. 3. Be sure to monitor all hot/cold potentially hazardous foods. Bacterial growth and/or toxin production can occur if PHF's remain in the temperature "Danger Zone" of 41F-140F too long. 4. Train employees on the importance of handwashing. Effective handwashing is essential for minimizing the likelihood of the hands becoming a vehicle of cross contamination. *Increase employee handwashing frequency.* 5. Review cooling process. Excessive time for cooling of potentially hazardous foods has been consistently identified as one of the leading contributing factors to foodborne illness. If food is not cooled in accordance with the Code requirement, pathogens may grow to sufficient numbers to cause foodborne illness. 6. There is no routine Professional Pest Control Company that services this establishment. No activity/evidence noted today. 7. Vent hood is due for cleaning this month. If you have any questions, please contact me. Thank you. ~~Water heater information: Model: No Change.
REMINDERS: Ensure that: • employees are effectively cleaning their hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds. • employees understand illnesses and symptoms that would prevent them from coming to work (i.e., vomiting, diarrhea, fever, etc.). • food is received from approved sources at the proper temperatures and in sound condition. • the proper temperatures of Potentially Hazardous Foods during receiving, storage, preparation, cooling, reheating, and service by using a probe thermometer. • foods are rapidly cooled down within 4 hours. • employees are properly cleaning multiuse equipment and utensils by washing, rinsing, and sanitizing. • there is no bare hand contact with ready-to-eat foods by using deli tissue, single use gloves, or tongs as a barrier. • employees are properly trained in food safety as it relates to their assigned duties.
