Comments

**Make sure raw meats are stored below all other foods, especially ready to eat cooked foods. Noted in Walk-in cooler. **All of the clamshell cooler lids were open during inspection. It wasn't busy. the units/the food in the units were barely at temperature. If you leave the lids open the units have to work harder than normal and this will stress the compressor and motor and put proper temperature controls at risk. Try and get staff to keep lids closed and not to pile inserts on top of inserts making it impossible to close lids. Cooling units less than 4 C Freezers below -18 C. Dishwasher at 50 ppm chlorine. **Make sure staff are following sanitation plan and wiping down work surfaces, door handles, walls in prep areas throughout the day, but for sure at end of day. **Make sure the floor is properly cleaned at the end of the day. Move containers, mouse traps and any boxes that may affect proper cleaning.
