4 inspections

  1. Monitoring Inspection

    3 infractions

    • 04. Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
      • The bleach-water (chlorine) sanitizer solution at the front counter area and in the back kitchen used to sanitize food-contact surfaces was measured at 10-ppm. The staff/operator was instructed to create a new sanitizer solution, which was measured at 100-ppm. The inspector informed the staff/operator that a 100-ppm chlorine sanitizer solution must be maintained at all times during the operations. Less than 100 ppm chlorine concentration means inadequate sanitization and more than 200 ppm means that chlorine residues could stay in food-contact surfaces, which contaminates food. Please ensure to test the chlorine concentration each time a solution is made, then daily, and recommended to check the solution every 2-4 hours throughout operations.
    • 04. Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
      • There were cleaning cloths stored on food-contact surfaces. The inspector informed the staff/operator that cleaning cloths must be fully submerged in a sanitizer bucket solution at all times after use. The cleaning cloths were stored in a sanitizer bucket solution afterwards.
    • 22. Are utensils and equipment maintained in a condition and a manner that ensures the safe handling of food?
      • Scoops for dry product were stored inside the bins with the scoops covered in product. All scoops should be stored away from the food product or in a separate food-safe container, then cleaned and sanitized daily, to prevent the risk of contamination of the bulk ingredients. The scoops were removed.
