203 - Food not cooled in an acceptable manner [s. 12(a)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Sauce in pot in walk in cooler made yesterday has not cooled quickly (food temperature 15 C).
Corrective Action(s): Sauce was discarded during the inspection. Follow your food safety plan. Hot potentially hazardous foods are to be cooled quickly from 60 C to 20 C in 2 hours or less and 20 - 4 C in 4 hours or less. Put pot in a cold ice water bath or use an ice wand to cool sauces quickly. Transfer to smaller containers and do not fully cover. This will allow steam to escape and food will cool more quickly. Once cold, fully cover food.

Garlic in oil is being stored in cooler.
Cooking > 74 C.
Cooling of foods - see above.
Thawing of meats is being done in separate cooler.
** Freezer - has become very worn and lid does not shut well (food is solidly frozen and <-18C). Operator is looking into replacing freezer.
