Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): The following potentially hazardous food items were observed stored at room temperature during inspection:
- Cream
- 3 cartons of milk
- Blended garlic, onion, ginger spice mix
- Potato filling mixture
- Peeled sliced onions
Staff stated that the food items were removed temporarily for lunch rush and that they would be used up within 1 hour. Food items measured at internal temperature between 4-11'C with probe thermometer. All food items which were not in use were placed in the walk-in cooler during inspection.
Corrective Action(s): Do not store any potentially hazardous foods at room temperature. All potentially hazardous foods must be stored in the cooler(s) at all times to prevent time-temperature abuse and foodborne illness. All potentially hazardous food items which are at room temperature (4-60'C) for more than 2 hours must be discarded. If you would like to keep potentially hazardous foods at room temperature for 2 hours or less during lunch rush, you must submit an updated food safety plan including logs which will be maintained to monitor time and temperature. Failure to comply will lead to future progressive enforcement.
