Observed food items, such as cooked carrots 5/19, raw pastrami 5/14, and raw, andouille pork 5/19, in reduced oxygen packaging past the 48 hour mark and not on the establishment's approved food list for their HACCP. Observed the establishment had not recently been filling out their temperature logs as required per their HACCP Plan. Following all steps on the approved HACCP plan, for the approved food list, is crucial to prevent the growth of pathogens. The PIC stated they have recently had a change in leadership for Le Ame, as well as some menu item changes. Due to this, updates to their HACCP plan may be required and the PIC will need to contact the HACCP/Variance dept. to make those changes. In the meantime, the PIC would like to move to the 48 hour date-mark for all of their Reduced Oxygen Packaged food and will be retraining their staff on the HACCP plan and it's requirements. The PIC voluntarily discarded the carrots, pastrami, and pork. Provided the HACCP plan via email.

"A" for Food Safety
Through our grading system, Maricopa County Environmental Services Department provides at-a-glance indications of how food establishments perform during food safety inspections. This system is designed to grade food establishments in terms of food safety requirements and provide recognition to those who choose to participate.
How does it work?
The issuance of grade cards to food establishments is based on voluntary participation. The person in charge, who is present during the inspection, will be asked whether they would like to participate in the Grading System. This will be decided prior to each inspection. If an establishment does not participate in the Grading System, Not Participating or NP will appear on the inspection report, and the inspection will still occur. If an establishment does participate, a grade of A, B, C, or D will be determined at the conclusion of the inspection using the Grading System chart below. Participating establishments will then be provided with a grade card that can be posted in the establishment. The status of the establishment’s grade will also appear on the Restaurant Ratings page of the department’s website.
How can I determine the grade?
The Grading System chart can be used to determine grades earned for establishments that do not participate. Grades are determined by the number of Priority and Priority Foundation violations received at the time of inspection. Violation types are defined in general terms below.
Definitions
- Priority Violation
- Major violation that directly contributes to increasing the risk of foodborne illness or injury (e.g. Food employees do not properly wash hands when required).
- Priority Foundation Violation
- Minor violation that does not directly contribute to an increased risk of foodborne illness but failure to correct this violation may lead to the occurrence of a priority violation. For example, hand washing soap and paper towels not available at hand wash sink (may lead directly to food employees not properly washing hands when required).
- Core Violation
- Minor violation that relates to general maintenance and sanitation (e.g. No sign reminding employees to wash hands).
- Cutting Edge Program
- All county food-related establishments can partner with Maricopa County to implement a proactive approach to reducing foodborne illness risk factors by implementing food safety systems that include policies, training, and verification processes. Partners enrolled in the Cutting Edge Program receive an A+ when an A is earned.
