205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Several items (including tempura prawns and vegetables, as well as other potentially hazardous foods such as sliced cucumber) were left out on countertops at room temperature. Bundles of prawns and other meat were defrosting in an ice chest on the countertop - temperature had reached up to 7-8 C at the tops of these items. Additionally, large bags of bean sprouts and containers of chopped avocado were left on top of the cooler inserts - this does not provide adequate cooling for these items.
Corrective Action(s): Moved to cooler/discarded if left at room temperature over 2 hours. Ensure all potentially hazardous foods are stored at 4 C or colder, or held hot at 60 C or higher. Do not leave these sitting on countertops, and ensure items on tops of prep line coolers are placed directly into insert trays.
Violation Score: 5
206 - Hot potentially hazardous food stored/displayed below 60 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Grilled chicken cutlets were stored on a cast iron dish on the flat iron grill. Internal temperature of cutlets measured at approximately 40 - 45 C. Operators stated these were cooked approximately one hour prior to inspection, but did not indicate any intention to use up or discard the chicken if not sold.
Corrective Action(s): Reheated on grill during inspection. Ensure hot holding dishes are placed on the hot parts of the grill, and lids are placed over each dish to trap heat inside. Keep all hot food at a temperature of 60 C or higher to prevent microbial growth.
Violation Score: 15
302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Several knives and cleavers in clean containers or on knife strips were observed to have stuck-on food debris and grease.
Corrective Action(s): Placed in dishwasher during inspection. Ensure staff thoroughly wash, rinse and sanitize all knives and utensils after use (or run them through the dishwasher). Do not place dirty items back in clean storage.
Violation Score: 5
