Violations:
A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below.

Code   Description / Observation / Corrective Action
116   Improper Construction / Maintenance of Establishment
Observation: The extra shelving in the dishwashing area has an edge that staff could hit their heads on - as a corrective measure they have made a soft edge using foam and tape. The edge is cleanable for now but the materials are likely not durable.
Corrective Action: The edge may need to be replaced once it wears - this replacement should be made of a more durable material that can be cleaned and sanitized regularly.
506   Equipment/utensils are maintained in a sanitary condition (Sec 17(1a))
Observation: The floor drains in the basement seem to be dried out and the smell of sewer gas seems to enter this area. This problem has not been identified previously.
Corrective Action: Investigate the cause (possibly dried up drains?) and implement corrective action to remove the objectionable odour.

Comments:
