Observations & Corrective Actions

37: I observed a couple pieces of raw chicken in pan with raw beef. Please be careful when putting meat on grill, so that chicken will not fall into beef pan. Also, do not fill above The limit line on metal pan. That line is to make sure food does not go above it.

42: Plates stored on top shef must be stored inverted. Plates must be covered.

45: Blue and red cutting boards has deep grooves. Please discard and purchase new cutting boards.

Additional Comments

Establishment did not have food sitting on ice while cooling. They also used a big plastic container to cool shredded chicken .

I recommend using metal pans to cool food. I also recommend doing smaller portions when cooling food.

Please put discarded date when date marking and not just Ithe prep date. Failure to label food with discard date Will result in a write up for improper date marking.
