Multiple concerns were identified related to cleanliness, food storage, and the lack of appropriate hair restraints. The findings included: During initial tour of the kitchen area on 3/5/13 at 9:30 AM with the Manager of Dining and Kitchen, the following items were observed: the main oven had dark brown dried substances inside the ovens; cabinets, carts, and ovens had a grease-like film on the outside; carts had debre' inside the carts; multiple pans were stored wet on the dry rack; a small cooler by the tray line had multiple racks of food that were unlabeled or undated; the reach in cooler had multiple pans of food unlabeled and undated; the walk-in cooler had 4 pans of jello undated; 1 container of food labeled with date 2/27/13 was outdated; salad items in containers that were uncovered and undated on a cart in the walk-in cooler; trash and debre' noted under racks near the walls of the walk-in cooler and freezer. It was also noted the kitchen floor had a heavy grease build-up; there was no trash can with a pedal by the handwashing sink; a large uncovered trash barrel near the tray line and a deep fryer with very dark oil and crumbs floating on top of the oil. The Manager verified the deep fryer could not have been cleaned on Sunday as per the cleaning schedule. There were bags of grapes stored in the walk-in cooler not sealed. One kitchen employee had hair not completely covered by a hairnet, and two male employees had beards not covered. The Manager confirmed each of the items noted above. 2014-04-01
