  • General Comments that relate to this Inspection
    **No violations observed during the inspectionFacility spotlessAll refrigeration @ 40F or belowSanitizer buckets @ 200ppm quatDishwasher @ 180F final rinseAll product stored correctly-everything off floor-raw meats stored below ready to eat productsBlast chiller in kitchen- most items; unless a small portion; cooled in blast chiller*Reviewed need to discuss small portion cooling with employees; to ensure that items which are not going through blast chiller are cooled from 140f to 40f within four hours.**Dishwashing area has had hand sinks pulled to facilitate OSHA eye washes. It would be preferable to have a hand sink directly available to dishwashers. There are hand wash sinks available in the vicinity and dishwashers do not handle food at any time; which minimizes risk.
