MAIN KITCHEN |
|
Seal the handsink to the wall. Seal the utility sink to the wall. Also, seal the coffee station to the wall if this is a |
fixed piece of equipment. (Replace missing outlet cover behind the coffee maker to ensure a smooth cleanable surface.) |
Replace broken light covers. |
Replace or clean ceiling tiles that have staining or spatter. |
Repair the ice cream cooler lids (missing handles). |
Culinary sinks used for washing vegetables, rinsing pasta, need to have an air gap in the drain. Without a proper air |
gap, use of these sinks will be limited to food prep using a footed colander. |
Wooden shelves in the storage area are broken and chipped. Repair these to be smooth, non-abosorbant, durable and easily |
cleanable. |
Repair the fryer cabinets, one is missing the doors and is being covered with aluminum lids. The repair needs to be done |
properly. |
Repair/replace missing cove molding near door ways. |
Repair the back exterior door to ensure pests are not able to enter through the hole that used to house a lock. Stuffing |
a rag in this hole is not adequate as it is not smooth, non-absorbent and easily cleanable. |
Service the floor mixer, there is oil noted on the exterior of the planetary and this is a potential source of |
contamination for foods in the mixing bowl when in use. |
|
BAR |
|
Fruit flies are observed in the area of the trash can in the corner closest to the front door. The floor was observed to |
be sticky. Sticky residues from alcohols and mixers are a food source for fruit flies. Clean this area more thoroughly. |
Cove molding is observed to be loose in several areas. Re-affix to wall to create an easily cleanable surface. |
|
DOWNSTAIRS (former pool snack bar) |
|
This area is currently not in use for outside events but is used for minimal food and supplies storage and employee break |
area. There is talk of possibly using this area for food service in the future. A plan review would be needed for any |
remodel for updating in this area for greater use or adding equipment. If this area will not be part of the food service |
license this will be noted in the file. To be licensable area for use, the following will need to be addressed, at a |
minimum: |
|
Replace all acoustical tiles in kitchen, warewashing and storage areas with vinyl coated tiles approved for food pre |
areas. |
Replace all water damaged and stained tiles in the dining area. |
Repair/replace the damaged walls in the dish area to be smooth, durable and easily cleanable. |
Replace spring on the sprayer. The sprayer head droops into the sink and needs to be kept on the hook intil the spring is |
replaced. The sprayer head in the sink could result in contamination of the water supply and should be avoided at all |
times. |
Repair/replace cove molding, areas are observed missing or loose. The wall damage near the molding needs to be repaired |
to be smooth, non-absorbent, durable and easily cleanable. |
Ensure that the dishwasher is operating properly, has no leaks, and is clean. |
Repair/replace damaged flooring |
Repair/replace/remove non-working equipment. |
