Comments

A routine inspection was completed, the following observations were made:
- Coolers 4C or colder; freezers were -17C or colder; hot holding units 60C or hotter; and thermometers present.
- Hand sinks stocked with liquid soap, paper towels, and running hot and cold water.
- High temperature dishwasher had a rinse cycle temperature of 75.5C at the plate's surface, as per max/min thermometer.
- All foods stored in food grade containers; covered; foods stored in groups with proteins separate or below RTE foods; and foods stored 6" off the floor on shelves or platforms.
- No expired foods in used. FIFO rules being followed.
- General sanitation level is good. No signs of pests.
- FoodSafe certified staff (owner) present. Have the sushi chef update his certificate as it expired in February 2021.
- Bleach sanitizer in spray bottles had [Cl2] over 200ppm. This is too high for food contact surfaces.
- Diluted 99% alcohol spray used to disinfect chairs and tables in the seating area. This is inaccurate, as the strength is unknown.

ACTIONS:
- Mix 1/2 teaspoon of bleach with 500mL of water in a spray bottle. Make a new solution every 2-3 days. The [Cl2] will be 100-200ppm.
- All wiping cloths must be stored in a bucket of bleach and water when not in use. When a staff needs a cloth, take one out of the bucket and use it, then place it back into the bucket. Replace the bleach and water with new solution every 2-3 hours. Mix 1/2 teaspoon of bleach with 500mL of water in a bucket.
- Change and purchase 70% alcohol and use it at full strength to sanitize tables and chairs.
