Routine inspection conducted. The following observations were made:
1. Temperatures
- Walk-in cooler (front & back) at 4C or less
- Bar undercounter coolers at 3C
- Stand-up freezers and chest freezer all at -18C or below
- Prep cooler line (right side) at 1C (bottom) and 4C (top)
- Prep cooler line (left side) at 1C (bottom) and 6C (top) due to lids not being on the coolers
- Temperature logs were NOT maintained up-to-date for today. You are required to check temperature logs 3x a day according to your food safety plan
2. Hygiene and Sanitizing
- Hand wash station adequately stocked with hot/cold running water, liquid soap, and single-use paper towels in kitchen and restrooms (customer + employee)
- Low-temperature dishwasher reliably dispenses 100 ppm chlorine residual at time of inspection
- Oasis 146 QUATERNARY ammonium compound sanitizer dispenser releases 200 ppm. Sanitizer logs are not up-to-date. You need to test the dispenser DAILY to ensure that it is in good working order. This was reviewed with the kitchen manager and staff
- Spray bottle and sanitizing pail at 200 ppm. Reminder: You should be using sanitizing pails throughout your facility, especially in areas with food handling. Cloths should always be placed inside the sanitizing pail
- Ice machine is maintained in good sanitary condition, scoop is securely stored outside of the ice machine. Filters appear in good condition
- Ventilation canopy is in acceptable condition, but is starting to accumulate some grease. Follow your sanitation plan and routinely degrease / sanitize the slats
3. Storage
- Food bins present for all dry storage items (except for the bag in the dry storage room, which was transferred to a bin)
- Chemical storage kept separate from food products
4. Pests
- No signs of recent pest activity at time of inspection. Mechanical traps opened (in dishpit area and behind cook line) did not contain any rodents
- Professional pest control company conducts routine audits. Last audit conducted on February 14, 2019 revealed no signs of pest activity
- Continue to follow good sanitation practices to reduce the incidence of pest activity
BAR AREA: (Bar not in use at time of inspection)
- Hand wash sink adequately stocked with hot/cold running water, liquid soap, and single-use paper towels
- Soda fountain nozzles are in good sanitary condition. Trays had some residue on them, which were removed on the request of the EHO
- Iodine low-temperature glasswasher releases 12.5 ppm iodophor residual at the glass. Logs for the iodine glasswasher were up-to-date. Iodine test-kit available. *REMINDER: Your iodine bottle has been recorded by your staff has being only 30% full. Before the iodine runs out, you must replace the iodine bottle to ensure that you have a constant iodine residual*
- Bar area generally in good sanitary condition
- Ice for consumption is kept separate from ice for cooling soda fountain lines
- Creamers are stored inside coolers - good
- *Reminder that sanitizer should be present when bar is in use*
The following also require your attention:
- As discussed, review with all staff that each chef is to have his/her own thermometer so that temperatures can be checked (185F for baking; 165F for reheating as per your food safety plan)
- Sanitizer concentration and temperature logs, dishwasher logs are expected to be up-to-date
- Some sweeping and mopping is required underneath your cook line. Ensure that your facility is in good sanitary condition, even behind the cook lines
A random spot-check may occur in the future. |
