out |
I observed that PIC was not able to give proper hot holding temperatures or cooking temperatures. When asking PIC about cooking of fried chicken, they stated that the chicken is done when its 'floating' and did not verify that they take temperatures of cooked TCS hot food items. I also observed that PIC was not able to speak to date marking. After asking the PIC about processed food items, they stated that they date all their open food items for 10 days and throw away. Also, during inspection I asked the PIC to make up sanitizer inside their 3 Compartment sink basin. They stated that they did not know how and also that they have never made sanitizer when washing their dishes. The PIC stated in their 3 compartment sink process, that they only wash and rinse before allowing them to dry and put into clean area. When asking the PIC inside the kitchen about their ice bagged on site, they stated that the customers bring the bags to the register and pay for them. I asked if they were labeled and the PIC stated that they were not during today's inspection. |
