10. Cased raw fish observed stored above packaged veggie burgers in walk in freezer. No prior documentation discussing storage of foods in freezer. Reminder: rules prohibiting storage of raw meats above ready to eat foods apply in freezers as well as coolers. 0.0
16. Small quantity of fried chicken observed below approved temperature range while awaiting being pulled from line to be cooled. Ensure that hot foods are held at 135 degrees F or above and are maintained at that temperature until they enter the active cooling process. CDI. 0.0
17. Macaroni and cheese observed in walk in cooler at 54 degrees F two hours after being re-panned. Potentially hazardous foods shall be held at 45 degrees F or below or 135 degrees F or above. Work with small batches to minimize chance of temperature abuse when performing activities at ambient temperature, such as re-panning or assembling recipes. Cut melon (49 degrees F), tofu (50 degrees F), boiled eggs (52 degrees F) observed out of approved temperature range at salad bar. Do not overfill containers. Stir regularly to ensure proper temperature. 2.0
23. Cut tomatoes (60 degrees F) and cooked potato in potato salad (78 degrees F) observed to have been combined with other ingredients and then placed in deep covered pans to complete cooling. Foods cooling from ambient or cooking/reheating/hot holding temperatures shall be cooled by approved and effective methods, such as cooling uncovered in shallow pans, cooling in an ice bath, adding ice as an ingredient, or other effective methods. Cooling process modified prior to breaking the "time-temperature curve", so no violation observed on #14. Please note that adding other potentially hazardous ingredients to a cooling food exposes them to the same risk as any other temperature abuse. Cooling is a six hour process, but the generally recognized time at which foods must be discarded if temperature abused is four hours, so ingredients added to a cooling food could be outside the approved temperature range longer than they can safely be held out at such temperatures. 1.0
34. Pans observed stacked tightly for storage while wet. Ensure that wares are fully air dried prior to storage. 0.5
45. Floors under ice machine in catering room not in good repair - tiles no longer anchored. Repair/replace tiles and ensure that ice machine runoff water does not pool on floor and cause additional floor damage. Walls/floors in syrup room not properly constructed, with large gap between wall and floor. The joints between walls and floors shall be rounded or be otherwise constructed to provide a tight seal between the floor and wall. Install tight fitting shoe molding to seal gap and allow for proper floor cleaning without risk of damaging walls. 0.5
47. Several non-food items observed stored on floor in catering storage room also used for storage of foods. All items in rooms used for warewashing or storage of foods shall be at least 12 inches above the floor (6 inches if easily movable) to facilitate floor cleaning and pest surveillance. 0.5
49. Documentation of approved training - 2 point credit awarded. 0.0
General Comments
Observed employee checking final cook temperature of fried chicken. Temperature found to be as low as 118 degrees F by EHS, but generally found to be at higher temperatures by employee, due to use of dial thermometer. Employee returned product to cooking process before it was removed from cooking station, so no violation observed. Dial thermometers are not accurate unless inserted several inches into foods, making them impractical and possibly inaccurate for this application. Recommend that digital thermometers be provided for checking final cook temperatures of thin products such as fried chicken. Personal hygiene items (toothbrush and cotton swabs) observed at serving area, but located to not contaminate foods or food contact surfaces. Store these items in a locker room or other non-food area. Please note: Sneezeguards at salad bar were discussed with plan review staff at time if initial inspection by this EHS and were ruled to be sufficient as installed. Recommend, however, that steps be taken to limit customer approach from sides. Ownership change or remodeling of establishment may require modification or replacement of sneezeguards to provide protection from customers approaching from sides. Additional note at management request: questions regarding Wake County Servsafe program may be referred to Carol Mitchell, at 919-250-1094.
