2) Items inside the preparation cooler had internal temperatures ranging between 7-10C.
Corrective Action(s): 1) Rice was discarded at the time of inspection. Ensure potentially hazardous foods are kept at temperatures below 4C or above 60C to prevent the growth of bacteria and/or accumulation of toxins.
2) Chopped produce, cream based dressings, and falafels were discarded at the time of inspection. Frozen items that were thawing and had an internal temperature of <4C were moved to a functional cooler.
Foods held in the danger zone (between 4C and 60C) allow pathogens to grow and toxins to accumulate which can lead to foodborne illness.
Violation Score: 15

Non-Critical Hazards: Total Number: 2
308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
Observation: The preparation cooler was maintaining an ambient temperature of 8C.

Comments

Routine inspection of the food facility conducted.

Temperatures:
- Drinks cooler: 4C.
- Upright coolers were at or below 4C
- Rice hot holding unit was holding rice at 64C
- Hot held peeled chicken had an internal temperature of 68C
**See violation above for the preparation cooler**

*The facility has cold storage in the next door unit (Paradise Donair Food Storage)

IR gun was available on site which the operator claimed to be using for checking temperatures of coolers.

Sanitation:
- 2 compartment sink was equipped with functional plugs. One sink was setup for sanitation with 100 ppm chlorine residual.
- Sanitizer spray bottle had 200 ppm chlorine residual. Ensure counters are wiped down every 2 hours to prevent the growth of pathogens and/or accumulation of toxins.
- Hand washing sinks were adequately equipped with hot and cold running water, liquid soap, and disposable paper towels.
- Washroom was in good sanitary condition.
Overall sanitation is satisfactory. Some attention should be given to hard to reach areas such as below sinks.

- Chemicals are stored in a separate room away from food.
- Food is stored at least 6" off the floor to facilitate cleaning.
- Food grade containers are used.

- Facility is monitored by a professional pest control company that visits every 3 months for the whole building. No issues have been noted.
- No signs of pest activity noted at the time of inspection.
