General CommentsEstablishment will only serve sushi today due to the walk-in cooler being above 41 degrees. Technician will arrive at 1pm today. Parasite Destruction Letters Present TPHC Policies for - Sushi Rice, Bok Choy, Lo Mein, Rice noodles, Bean Sprouts, Boba, various Mayo Sauces EHS recommends installing flaps for the walk-in cooler door to hold foods at 41 degrees or less. Increasing deliveries from 2 to 3-4 will also allow for more cooling and cold holding space. EHS recommends shifting equipment in the sushi bar to allow more space for the hand washing sink. A temperature log was given to the Manager to track the WIC over the next several days. Owners are also looking into ordering digital temperature gauges to track 24/7.
