2 ***

The manager did not have his Certified Food Protection Manager certificate.

***

As stated in the pre-opening completed on 4/19/23, as a "category II food facility, you must have a Certified Food Manager on duty during hours of food preparation".

I will include links to the TCHD CFPM clases and links to the ServSafe website.

- 2-102.12: (A) The PERSON IN CHARGE shall be a certified FOOD protection manager who has shown proficiency of required information through passing a test that is part of an ACCREDITED PROGRAM. (B) This section does not apply to certain types of FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS deemed by the REGULATORY AUTHORITY to pose minimal risk of causing, or contributing to, foodborne illness based on the nature of the operation and extent of FOOD preparation. - V
10 ***

The handwashing sink near the warewashing area had gloves and cleaning utensils inside of it.

***

COS
Manager moved the items out of the sink. The hand sink must be accessible at all times for hand washing and not used for any other purpose than washing hands.

- 5-205.11 (A): (A) A HANDWASHING SINK shall be maintained so that it is accessible at all times for EMPLOYEE use. - V,COS
16 ***

PIC made a sanitizer bucket that tested to 200 ppm.

***

COS
Manager diluted the bucket, and it was tested to 100 ppm. The bucket used was very small, and PIC used a cap full of bleach. I recommend using half a cap to a few drops of bleach if the small container is constantly used.

- 4-501.114 (A):  (A) A chemical SANITIZER used in a SANITIZING solution for a manual or mechanical operation at contact times specified under ¶4-703.11(C) shall meet the criteria specified under §7-204.11 Sanitizers, Criteria, shall be used in accordance with the EPA- registered label use instructions, and shall be used as follows: (A) A chlorine solution shall have a minimum temperature based on the concentration and pH of the solution as listed in the following chart in the Food Code. - V,COS
28 ***

Found air fresher stored with food above food preparation areas.

***

COS
PIC moved the air freshener way from the food.

- 7-201.11: POISONOUS OR TOXIC MATERIALS shall be stored so they can not contaminate FOOD, EQUIPMENT, UTENSILS, LINENS, and SINGLE­ SERVICE and SINGLE-USE ARTICLES by: (A) Separating the POISONOUS OR TOXIC MATERIALS by spacing or partitioning; and (B) Locating the POISONOUS OR TOXIC MATERIALS in an area that is not above FOOD, EQUIPMENT, UTENSILS, LINENS, and SINGLE-SERVICE or SINGLE-USE ARTICLES. This paragraph does not apply to EQUIPMENT and UTENSIL cleaners and SANITIZERS that are stored in WAREWASHING areas for availability and convenience if the materials are stored to prevent contamination of FOOD, EQUIPMENT, UTENSILS, LINENS, and SINGLE-SERVICE and SINGLE-USE ARTICLES. - V,COS
48 ***

The facility had no test strips for its sanitizer.

***

Procure test strips for chlorine sanitizer by next routine inspection.

- 4-302.14: A test kit or other device that accurately measures the concentration in MG/L of SANITIZING solutions shall be provided. - V
49 ***

Found organic growth on the inside lip of the ice machine.

***

COS
Clean the ice machine. I will be back on Wednesday, November 20th, 2023, to inspect the ice machine and see that it is clean of organic growth.

- 4-601.11(C): (C) NonFOOD-CONTACT SURFACES of EQUIPMENT shall be kept free of an accumulation of dust, dirt, FOOD residue, and other debris. - V
