Item 10B: Non-food contact surfaces and equipment are improperly designed, constructed, installed, maintained (equipment not readily accessible for cleaning, surface not smooth finish)
Item 11D: Non food contact surfaces of equipment not clean

Comments: The following were reviewed: thermometer calibration with the correct amount of ice to achieve a solution of 32°F of ice water; proper thawing methods for sealed plastic sealed foods is not under flowing water; sufficient hair restraint for food handlers; proper cooling of foods; and reheating of foods. Interview and review of cooling logs indicated an ice bath is used to cool from 120°F - 70°F; then shallow, thin layers under refrigeration from 70°F - 45°F. The response of the kitchen manager when asked the minimum temperature requirement for reheating foods was 160°F (not 165°F) and his inability to state any "actual" temperatures seen when monitoring daily reheating of foods; prompted the inspector to strongly recommend the operator use daily reheating logs with written instuctions to ensure all foods being reheated are greater than 165°F.

Comments: This is the second 2016 routine inspection. The cook was not able to give actual times and temperatures of foods during the cooling process. This indicates there is a lack of monitoring for proper cooling. Inspector recommends: 1) Cooling logs be established and available for review at inspections; and 2) the wall mounted, removable knife holder be replaced, and hung against a stainless steel wall surface. Inspector gave botulism prevention training by informing the operator about:1) the requirement that the whole raw shallots and garlic they use with oils, butters, and reductions must be temperature controlled; and 2) The manufacturer vacuumed packed frozen fish they use must be thawed and cold held in a refrigerator holding at 41*F or less (not 45*F or less used for other foods) and be used within 7 days after being removed from the freezer.
