307 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not of suitable design/material [s. 16; s. 19]
Observation:
There are shelves, walls, and counter tops that are covered in non-food grade materials or single-use materials (newspapers, cardboard, plastic, duct tape, etc.), and/or are damaged with peeling paint and dents in walls. These materials are not acceptable, cleanable, nor food grade, and all surfaces shall be smooth, durable, cleanable and sealed.

Violation Score: 3

308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
Observation:
1) The front sushi sink has a leaking waste pipe. Dirty water will contaminate the take-out containers below and the pooling water will attract pests.
2) The freezer in the dry storage room had a build up of ice and the lid wasn't able to close. Cold air was escaping causing the cooling fan to constantly run and using more power.
Corrective Action(s):
1) Relocate the take-out containers to another area until the waste pipe is repaired. Repair the waste pipe so it no longer leaks.
2) Remove the ice or defrost the freezer to rid of the ice so the freezer lid can close tightly keeping the cold air in.
**Correction date: Oct. 28/16**
Violation Score: 3

311 - Premises not maintained as per approved plans [s. 6(1)(b)]
Observation:
The light level in the kitchen is below the acceptable level. It is difficult to see how dirty surfaces are and if adequate cleaning has been done.
Corrective Action(s):
Install more light bulbs and/or replace all broken light bulbs so it is brighter in the kitchen area.
