Comments

A routine inspection was conducted, the following items were observed:
Remaining handsinks equipped with hot and cold running water, liquid soap and paper towel
Coolers (except walk-in cooler) operating at </=4 C; Foods stored in walk-in cooler are separated with raw proteins on the right and ready-to-eat items on the left. Freezers at </= -18C
No hot-holding at the time of inspection. Ensure that foods are heated to 74C before placing in a hot-holding unit at 60C.
Low-temperature dishwasher reached 50 ppm chlorine at the plate level AFTER priming the unit. Check the chlorine concentration daily with test strips and prime the unit if necessary.
Glasswasher reached 50 ppm chlorine at the glass level upon final rinse cycle.
FoodSafe certified present *Note: FoodSafe certificates expire every 5 years going forward (those certificates without expiry dates have officially expired January 2019). Keep copies of FoodSafe certificates on-site for inspector to review.
General sanitation is adequate
No signs of pests observed; pest control contract in-effect
Foods stored 6" off the ground and mostly covered to protect from contamination
Must ensure that meat stored for BBQ is not kept at room temperature for longer than 2 hours. It must be stored at </=4 C or >/= 60C to prevent the growth of disease-causing pathogens (germs)
Buffet unit not turned on.

Note: Inspection conducted at 4:00 ppm - facility not yet open for business (5:00 pm). Operator noticed that walk-in cooler was not working properly and called repair technician, who arrived during the inspection.
Please begin recording cooler/freezer temperatures in a log daily and keep records on site for a minimum of 2 weeks for inspector to review. Maintaining records is good to be able to see cooler temperature trends and recognize when a unit is beginning to fail and requires corrective action.
