HAZARD RATING FOR YOUR FACILITY: High (≥30) Total Score = 36
Critical Hazards: Total Number: 4
203 - Food not cooled in an acceptable manner [s. 12(a)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Two full trays of cooked food were found in the walk-in cooler and were at 30 degrees Celsius.
Corrective Action(s): Foods must be cooled as quickly as possible in small portions/batches. When cooked food is stacked together (like the cooked meat and tempura) the heat is trapped within and the foods cannot cool quickly. Instructed staff to divide the food into smaller portions to enable more rapid cooling.
Violation Score: 5

302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Drapes hanging between kitchen and sushi bar are filthy.
Corrective Action(s): Drapes need to be changed and laundered daily. Filthy drapes can lead to cross-contmaination because food handlers constantly touch the drapes when passing into the sushi bar/kitchen. Instructed staff to remove the dirty drapes at time of inspecion. Staff replaced the dirty drapes with a set of clean drapes.
Violation Score: 5

303 - Equipment/facilities/hot & cold water for sanitary maintenance not adequate [s. 17(3); s. 4(1)(f)]
Observation: Low temperature dishwasher did not have any sanitizer residual.
Corrective Action(s): Sanitizer residual was not detected on dishware that had been washed in the low-tmperature dishwasher. Dishwasher was run three times and each time sanitizer residual could not be detected using chlorine test strips. Dishwasher shall be serviced/repaired to ensure at least 50ppm chlorine residual. Until the dishwasher is repaired, all dishware and utensils shall be manually sanitized after they come out of the dishwasher. Use a clean container and fill with clean water and bleach (1 oz bleach for every 4 litres of water). Fully submerge the dishware and utensils in the bleach and water solution for two full minutes and then allow to air dry. Water and bleach solution shall be changed every 2 hours.
