8 X 2-301.14 (H): When to Wash-Before Donning Gloves
Multiple employees were observed donning gloves before washing their hands. The employees were changing their gloves when moving in between tasks but, were not washing them before removing old ones and putting on new ones. COS: The employees were educated by the inspector on proper glove use and hand washing.

Falafel was 97 F inside the steam table. The food item was double panned which may have contributed to the item being out of temperature. COS: The falafel was discarded by the PIC.
COS
22 X X 3-501.16(A) (2): TCS FOODS: Cold Holding 41ºF or Less
1. A pan of rice was sitting on the prep table at 45 F. According to the PIC, the item was getting ready to be used to make fried rice. The item remained sitting on the prep table through the end of my inspection (R2). COS: The PIC was instructed to move the rice to the walk-in until it was ready to be reheated. There was a discussion about not pulling items out of refrigeration if the food isn't going to be cooked or used immediately.

2. An open container of half-n-half was 60 degrees in the 2-door make-table cooler. The carton was stored well above the limit line of the make-table cooler. The PIC was unable to pinpoint how long the item had been out of temperature (R2).
COS: The product was discarded.

3. There was a pot pushed into the upper portion of the make-table cooler. The pot was holding a potato dish that was 48 F. According to the PIC, the dish was only out for approx. 1 hour (R2).
COS: The dish was moved to the walk-in cooler to cool to 41 F or below within 3 hours. There was a discussion about how to properly load the make-table cooler.
