A Taste of Sandy – Food Safety Requirements

Introduction The goal of “A Taste of Sandy” is to promote your restaurant and the services it offers to Guests. Food Safety is our #1 concern and priority. Please take time to read, understand and be in compliance of the guidelines below.

Robert SullivanChef / OwnerUtah Food Services

South Towne Expo Center

Utah Food services has the exclusive food and beverage distribution rights within the South Towne Expo Center.

Prior written authorization must be obtained by exhibitors and sponsoring organizations before they may distribute sample food and/or non-alcoholic beverage products in the Center.

Prior approval must be obtained by exhibitors and sponsoring organizations before use of cooking equipment at the Center.

A Food and Beverage Sample Distribution Application is attached as page 4.Approved Samples At the Discretion of Utah Food Services, exhibitors who do not comply will be

asked to remove the items from the facility or be subject to fees and / or commissions.

Item Limitation Items that re dispensed are limited to: Products manufactured or produced by the exhibiting firm. A maximum of 2 ounces in a 3 ounce or smaller container.

Standard Fees Standard fees for storage, handling, delivery, etc., will be charged where applicable.URL: www.utahfoodservices.com

Disposal Costs Costs associated with the disposal of trash, waste, grease, etc. from exhibitor sampling is the responsibility of the client.

Not Allowed Restroom, concession stands and / or facility kitchens are not to be used as exhibitor clean-up areas.

Exhibitor Responsibility

Securing all necessary licenses, permits, etc., is the responsibility of the exhibitors.

SLVHD Authority Exhibitors are responsible for complying with all Salt Lake Valley Health Department regulations regarding food sampling, equipment, maintained temperature, etc. If the exhibitor is not in compliance or does not obtain the proper permits, SLHVD can shut down the booth.

Permit Visibility Restaurateurs and personnel must Have their Food Handlers Permit in the booth during ‘A Taste of Sandy’. Must have Food Handlers Permit or Copy.

Contamination Guards

Proper guards to protect food (sneeze guards, etc.) are generally required by SLVHD for a public event. Ask the Department for clarification of this ‘gray area’.

Cold Food Your cold food should leave your facility at no more than 41 degrees F.Hot Food Your hot food should leave your facility at no less than 135 degrees F.Maximum Time Four hours is the maximum amount of time SLVHD regulations permit food to

be away from maintained refrigeration or heat. Foods must also not be ‘left out’ in direct sunshine.

SLVHD has determined that foods are ‘Safe’ during the four hours. This does not imply that your food will ‘Taste’ best.

Probable Risk You must consider this four hour time limit in your plans for preparation, travel, and display to the guests. As the event is scheduled to be open for three hours, you will be taking the risk of probably serving food that does not comply with food safety regulations.

Liability Utah Food Services can be held liable for any issues arising from the consumption of suspect food or beverages. It is not a risk that we will take lightly. UFS will require you to keep your hot food and cold at ambient (existing on all sides) temperatures.

Ensure Compliance To ensure compliance with SLVHD safe food regulations, Utah Food Services offers: Rental of chaffing dishes at a ‘nominal’ fee. Rental of NSF Certified Hot and Cold Food Transports at a ‘nominal’ fee. Use of NSF cooler space at the Exposition Center at no charge / pending amount

of space required. Use of UFS ovens and deep fryers at nominal fee / pending time of usage and

Requirements of Utah Food Services

Each Restaurateur must: Submit a ‘Food and Beverage Sample Distribution Application’ (on page 4)

listing your intent of what you plan to serve. This must be submitted one week prior to the event for approval. The approval process will be simple if the guidelines are followed.

You are required to fill out the attached HACCP flow chart. Information is important regarding:

- Temperature of food upon departure from your restaurant.- Temperature of food upon arrival at South Towne Expo Center.

Please be sure to list a contact person and a phone number in case we have any questions. (Due to time constraints, the lack of contact person will significantly slow the approval process.)

Hoops We are sorry there are so many ‘hoops for you to jump through’, especially when you are already providing outstanding complimentary food. But is the reality of the 21st century. You will actually find us easy to work with. We are here to assist you and we will do all we can to help make ‘A Taste of Sandy’ a successful event.
