Comments

Routine inspection conducted. Facility generally maintained in good sanitary condition; however, there are a number of deficiencies noted.

1. Temperatures
- Sliding glass door cooler between 11-13C (see violation code above)
- Undercounter coolers at 4C or less
- Freezer temperatures satisfactory
- No hot-holding conducted at time of inspection
- No temperature logs present. NOTE: it is vital that you continue to maintain daily temperature logs to ensure that your equipment is functioning properly. Malfunctioning equipment will result in temperature abuse of your perishable items

2. Hygiene and Sanitizing
- Hand wash station adequately stocked with hot/cold running water, liquid soap, and single-use paper towels (obstructed at time of inspection)
- Low-temperature dishwasher sanitizes at final rinse cycle of 78C at the plate (minimum: 71C)

3. Storage Practices
- Storage practices satisfactory. Food products are covered when not in use, freezer bags appropriately used
- Food products stored at least 6" off the floor

4. Pest Control
- No signs of recent, visible pest activity noted at time of inspection

5. Administrative
- Operator has FoodSafe 1
- Operating permit posted

NOTE: Your facility has very cooler space to accommodate all of your food products. You must continue to ensure that you have adequate food storage amenities to keep all food products at 4C or less or consider downsizing your menu. According to your food safety plan, Korean soups and dishes are purchased pre-made at a supermarket and re-heated on-site at the restaurant.
