Inspection Results

Date: 2019-02-27 Type: Inspection Violations: 0 critical, 4 noncritical
Item 11B: Wiping cloths dirty, not stored properly in sanitizing solutions
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 9B: Tobacco is used; eating, drinking in food preparation, dishwashing food storage areas
Item 11A: Manual facilities inadequate, technique incorrect; mechanical facilities not operated in accordance with manufacturer's instructions
Comments: Comment: There appeared to be significant improvement observed since the last inspection on 6/15/18. Although, the inspections were conducted by different inspectors. The cooling issue with the potatoes that was cited, was addressed by now the facility only serving precut and precooked potatoes that are "cook and serve," no cooling involved. All half a dozen metal stem food probe thermometers were found to read 32 F in ice bath. Cook provided documentation of monthly calibration of thermometers and documentation of cooling of various menu items (soups, Michigan sauce). The improper cold holding of the eggs cited was addressed by now keeping fewer eggs in the cooler tray on the line. Partially prefilled trays of eggs are kept in the walkin cooler for "ready access". The coleslaw and macaroni salad cited for not being in refrigeration was addressed by keeping additional pans of salad in the walkin cooler. They are immediately placed in cooler after they have been mixed and combined. New cutting boards which, have a harder surface to prevent groves and pitting were installed on all the prep coolers. It appeared the food service staff take food safety and sanitation very serious. Items checked during inspection included the following: accuracy of food probe thermometers, proper hot and cold holding, availability of handwashing in food prep area, use of barrier (gloves) for handling "ready to eat" food, proper concentration of sanitizer for wiping cloths, proper concentration of sanitizer used to wash dishes, proper heat sanitizing by new dishwasher, proper food storage and general sanitation. the cook stated the operator places two big food orders a week. Based on the amount of food kept in the refrigerators and freezers, it appears there is a relatively large amount of food that is prepared and served, indicating rapid turnover of food. To substantiate inspector's observations, there are pictures provided below. A water sample was collected at the three bay sink. T

Institue cooling logs (forms will be sent for you use) and use thermometers regularly to monitor and track temps. avoid filling tops of coolers to the brim. Another inspection will be made this year.
