OBSERVATIONS AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS
Item
Number
Violations cited in this report must be corrected within the time frames below.
*1 There is no food safety manager certified by this Department (CFSM) on duty as required. A CFSM must be on duty at all times the facility is open and/or food is being prepared. This facility only has one certified food safety manger registered with Department. A manager on site was able to provide a valid Food Safety Manager Certificate (ServSafe, exp. 6/2025), but is not registered with Department. A completed application (SA-71) for CFSM, or proof of enrollment in an approved safety class must be submitted to the Department.  New Violation. To be Corrected By: 04/18/2025
*8 - The hand sink on the cook’s line was blocked upon inspection and no soap was available.
- The hand sink next to the three-compartment sink had a malfunctioning paper towel dispenser.
- The hand sink in the prep area was blocked upon inspection.
A handwashing facility shall be maintained so that it is accessible at all times for employee use. Each handwashing sink shall be provided with a supply of hand cleaning liquid, powder or bar soap, individual, disposable towels, a continuous towel system that supplies the user with a clean towel or a heated-air hand drying device.  Corrected On-Site.  New Violation.
*14 *The food contact surfaces of equipment and utensils are not being properly cleaned and sanitized. The mechanical ware washing machine that uses high temperature for sanitizing is not functioning. A sanitizing indicator sticker showed wares did not reach the required 160F for sanitizing. The wash cycle temperature maxed at 150F and the final rinse maxed at 170F. For a high temperature mechanical dishwasher, the wash temperature must reach at least 160F and the final rinse cycle must reach at least 180F. All wares and food contact surfaces of equipment and utensils must be cleaned and sanitized after each use or at required time intervals. The facility cannot use the mechanical dishwasher until it can provide proof of sufficient sanitization of high temperature or chemical sanitizer. Repair and provide service report to this Department. Use a properly set-up three-compartment sink for all wares and utensils until repairs are made.
- Facility only has test strips for chlorine-based sanitizer. Aquire appropriate test strips for quaternary ammonium tablets to ensure correct amount of sanitizer is being used.
 Repeat Violation. To be Corrected By: 04/18/2025
*20 *- Butter-based spreads and other time/temperature control for safety (TCS) food items were double stacked in containers in the cook’s line cold-hold table within an ice bath. Butter spread temped at 61F. The ice bath was replenished on site.
- Large containers of shredded cheese, and cooked pasta was temped in prep area at 57F. PIC stated they were in the process of prepping and cooking macaroni and cheese. Staff was reminded to quickly prep TCS foods and limit time outside of refrigeration or prep in smaller quantities.

 Corrected On-Site.  New Violation. To be Corrected By: 04/16/2025
