Comments: Comment: Chicken tortilini soup was cooking on stove during inspection. Operator move the soup to a hot holding crock in the front serving area. Also, observed was a pot of beef gravy which, is without beef juices. The gravy was also moved to a crock pot. A medium sized bowl of recently boiled chicken was observed cooling in the refrigerator. Operator prepares the chicken daily and uses it in wraps. Though more diligent cleaning is needed at facility, hot food was hot, cold food was cold, food probe thermometers measured 34F in ice bath, sanitizer was present, hand washing was available.
Date: 2015-11-20 Type: Inspection Violations: 0 critical, 4 noncritical
Item 11C: Food contact surfaces not washed, rinsed and sanitized after each use and following any time of operations when contamination may have occurred
Item 11B: Wiping cloths dirty, not stored properly in sanitizing solutions
Item 8E: Accurate thermometers not available or used to evaluate refrigerated or heated storage temperatures
Item 11D: Non food contact surfaces of equipment not clean
Comments: Comment: No actual bare hand contact was observed. However, cook was able to see inspector coming, through serving window. Cook was putting on gloves just as inspector rounded corner and was able to view kitchen from doorway. The use of barrier or utensil on "ready to eat" food is likely the primary critical control point involved with the food preparation at subject facility. The only hot holding is soup made daily. The only raw product delivered to facility is hambuger, boxed chicken breast for soup and bacon. The chicken used for sandwiches is a precooked chicken breast. The turkeys are precook. No michigans are served.

Item 11B: Wiping cloths dirty, not stored properly in sanitizing solutions

Item 8A: Food not protected during storage, preparation, display, transportation and service, from potential sources of contamination (e.g., food uncovered, mislabeled, stored on floor, missing or inadequate sneeze guards, food containers double stacked)
Comments: Comment: Reinspection was the result of a "C" rating of the last inspection. The primary concern from the past inspections was bare hand contact with "ready to eat" food, such was not observed during this inspection. Inspector reiterated importance of using a barrier when handling prepared food to reduce the potential of spreading a food born illness with cook.
