3-501.16(A)(2) Maintain TCS foods in cold holding at 41F or less. -P
-Observed multiple TCS foods in upstairs tall RIC above 41F (chicken empanada, corn empanada, caprese empanada, spinach empanada, mediterranean empanada, hashbrowns, vegana empanada filling). All other TCS foods in the cooler were properly cold holding below 41F. -CDI- PIC voluntarily discarded the items listed above.
-Observed multiple coolers (WIC, two downstairs lowboys, downstairs display cooler, upstairs tall RIC, upstairs lowboy, two upstairs tall RIF’s) not functioning (no electrical power) at start of inspection. Per PIC, entire panel of breakers tripped, which caused multiple coolers to stop functioning. PIC stated tripped breakers occurred exactly at 7am. EHS and PIC checked food temperatures throughout all coolers. Despite coolers being non-functioning since 7am, TCS foods in the WIC, downstairs milk lowboys, and all freezers were properly cold holding at or below 41F. -During inspection, electrician arrived and stated breaker board will be fixed today or early tomorrow. -Due to some electrical outlets still functioning, electrician stated extension cord could be used to plug in coolers/freezers to turn them on. -By end of inspection, EHS observed all upstairs coolers (tall RIC, lowboy, two tall RIF’s) and the downstairs display cooler, additional downstairs lowboy, and WIC turned on and properly holding ambient air below 41F. -Because coolers/freezers were non-functioning for less than 4 hours, any TCS foods stored in coolers that were temporarily down may be rapidly cooled in freezers, as long as they meet cooling parameters by cooling to 41F or below by 11am. -PIC placed all TCS foods in display case on 4-hours TPHC, to be discarded at 7am.
-Monitor TCS foods throughout all coolers on frequent basis. Do not cold hold any TCS foods in coolers holding ambient temperature above 41F. -Because all coolers, except one downstairs lowboy, were properly cold holding TCS foods by end of inspection, facility may remain open and operating on full menu. EHS will follow up once breaker board is repaired.
