205Critical Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Observation: Potentially hazardous cold foods such as cheese, chicken and sauces were stored at above 4°C. The internal temperature of cheese was measured at 9.8°C. (Public Health significance) - All potentially hazardous foods must be stored at below 4°C or above 60°C - out of the temperature danger zone to prevent bacterial growth and possibly food borne illness.
Corrective Action: Staff immediately moved potentially hazardous cold foods to working refrigeration units that maintain a temperature of 4°C or less, monitor and adjust the temperatures or have serviced, as required.
206Critical Hot potentially hazardous food stored/displayed below 60 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Observation: (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION) Potentially hazardous hot foods such as potato taters were stored at below 60°C. (Public Health significance) - All potentially hazardous foods must be stored at below 4°C or above 60°C - out of the danger zone to prevent bacterial growth and possibly food borne illness.
Corrective Action: Staff immediately moved the potato taters from the counter to the refrigeration unit. Recommend keeping a time track for when the freshly cooked tarters are put on the counter until 2 hours after that. Ensure they are either served within 2 hours or are discarded after that to prevent the growth of spoilage microorganisms.
