RFS # 15-0094

A complaint was received on this date (March 23, 2015) stating that the hot holding units/steam table at the Bradley Student Center is not working correctly and they should not be open.

This complaint was investigated on March 23, 2015, and it was found that the steam table at Moe's Southwest Grill, which has three separate units, recently was worked on. The two outer units were just repaired this morning (3/23/15) at 6am and the middle compartment is still not functioning properly. There is no food in the middle compartment at this time. Parts have been ordered to repair it.

The whole unit was not used during the time it was down and the staff limited the items served during that time. Chafing pans and Sternos were used to keep the food items hot. These were used during 5pm on 3/22/15 until close. The units were repaired at 6 am on 3/23/15. The water on the left side is currently at 175 degrees F and the right side at 154 degrees F. These units are keeping the food items at 135 degrees F or above.

Continue to not use the center compartment of the steam table until it is repaired and capable of hot holding at 135 degrees F or above.

No further investigation. Case closed.
No violation noted during this evaluation.

The course information, frequently asked questions and all online training course websites available can be found on our website at www.pcchd.org on the right side of the screen, under "Recently Updated Pages", click on "Food Protection Prevention". This will have all the information you need. Once the certifications are received for all employees, either post them at your establishment or keep them in a binder so they are ready for any inspections starting in 2015.
