Violation descriptions and comments

Mar 11, 2009

This is a partial inspection due to a complaint to our Dept. stating a month ago they found a fruit fly frozen in their ice and on 3-6-09 they
had a dead fruit fly floating in their lemonade, and one live fly hovering over them during the entire meal.
The manager stated that Eco Lab comes in once a month and puts heavy duty chemicals in the drains which kills the adult fly but not the
larvae. He also cleans the drains with bleach on a weekly basis.
They use to have a plastic lemonade dispenser on top of the bar which seemed to attract the flies. They now removed it and keep the pitchers
of lemonade in the bar refrigerators
At the time of inspection, I found two fruit flies in the bar area. I told manager to ask Eco Lab if they have any other effective methods to
address this issue.

Violation 45 V: 4-501.12 Cutting Surfaces.
• The cutting board in the cooks line that is used to cut cooked chicken is starting to become heavily scored. Consider resurfacing or
replacing in the near future.
Surfaces such as cutting blocks and boards that are subject to scratching and scoring shall

(A) In a mechanically refrigerated or hot FOOD storage unit, the sensor of a TEMPERATURE

This inspection was done as the result of a complaint email that our office received from the state. The complainant stated that he and his
wife ordered two of the Chopped honey crisp chicken salad as take-out on 1-16-2011. Both of them became ill and the complainant feels it is
due to these salads.
Upon our inspection we discussed their employee health policy. The policy is currently verbal. Hand washing and glove use was observed.
The chicken is kept in a reach-in freezer that is at a temperature of 2 F. The cook then cooked one for us and the finished product is at a
temperature of 200 F. It is then taken to a cutting board that is sanitized before each use with a quat sanitizer; it is at 200 ppm. After
being cut it is set on a clean plate and placed under a hot hold area. The chopped salad comes in prewashed in large bags and is then
separated into smaller portions. It is then placed in a cooler until use. The vegetables added to the salad are washed with Victory wash.
During the inspection we did observe vegetable washing. The dressing is held in a cold holding refrigerator. The air temperature of the cooler
is at 41 F. The reach-in cooler that the salad is kept in is at 39 F.
The salad dressing is kept in the cooler directly below the hot hold area. This is an undesirable location.
