General Comments that relate to this Inspection OBSERVATIONS; RECOMMENDATIONS & REQUIREMENTS:- Ensure that potentially hazardous foods (PHF) requiring temperature control are cooled properly. Proper cooling requires that product is cooled from 140F down to 40F or less within 4 hours OR you may use the FDA cooling curve in which product is cooled from 140F down to 70F in 2 hours and from 70F down to 40F in an additional 4 hours for a total of 6 hours. Observed meatless marina (containing garlic; oil; spices; etc.) at 118F in the 2 door reach in cooler at the hot line. Per operator product was prepared and placed under refrigeration at approximately 2pm. Advised operator to either re-heat the product to 165F and then attempt to properly cool or attempt to rapidly cool by 6pm. Operator placed product from into stainless steel containers in an ice water bath. Product had reached 65F by 5pm. This product may be shelf stable however because of the mixture of ingredients it must be considered a potentially hazardous product requiring refrigeration until proven otherwise.- Upstairs bar currently has an ice bin that drains indirectly to a bucket underneath the equipment. Advised owner/operator that permanent facilities must have permanent plumbing and the ice bin must drain indirect to a floor sink. A portable Cambro ice bin may be used for short term transport only.
