Comments

The walk-in cooler has not working since five days ago. Technicians have been called but none were able to attend. Temperature inside has been too warm at 11-13C for days. Unsafe food may have been sold. Food items should have been moved to the many other refrigeration units that were working at the correct temperature and with space inside. Kitchen temperature was 22C and outside 25C today. The same problem was noted at the inspection last year (July 8, 21). Please ensure staff are aware of what corrective actions to take in the future.

Ticket has been issued.
