Item 5A (Critical): Potentially hazardous foods are not kept at or below 45°F during cold holding, except smoked fish not kept at or below 38°F during cold holding. Item 10B: Non-food contact surfaces and equipment are improperly designed, constructed, installed, maintained (equipment not readily accessible for cleaning, surface not smooth finish) Item 15A: Floors, walls, ceilings, not smooth, properly constructed, in disrepair, dirty surfaces Item 9B: Tobacco is used; eating, drinking in food preparation, dishwashing food storage areas Item 8F: Improper thawing procedures used Item 8B: In use food dispensing utensils improperly stored Item 16: Miscellaneous, Economic Violation, Choking Poster, Training. Comments: Comment: A tremendous amount of food is prepared in the kitchen especially, in the summer when there is additional outdoor seating. According to last year's inspection, operator had intended to replace some equipment and do some up grades in the kitchen. As result of some recently discovered Builing Code issues with the electrical panal boxes that serve the whole building located at the back dry storage area; there was some construction activity undertaken to get the building's electrical system up to code. The operator took this opportunity to expand the food preparation area to meet the demand of his business. This does require Health Department review and approval. Operator must submit plans that specify wall, floor and ceiling surfaces and layout sketch, to scale, that shows equipment location by Friday March 8th. |
