Comments

A routine inspection was conducted, the following observations were made:
- Coolers were 4C; freezer was -15C; and thermometers present. The retail, drink cooler was 7C but it only stored packaged, non-perishable foods. It is ideal to set the temperature at 4C or colder to prolong the quality of these foods.
- High temperature dishwasher had a rinse cycle temperature of 80.6C at the plate's surface, as per max/min thermometer.
- Hand sink stocked with liquid soap, paper towels, and running hot and cold water.
- All foods stored in food grade containers; labeled; date coded; stored in groups; and stored 6" off the floor in cupboards or on shelves.
- No expired foods in use or for sale. FIFO rules being followed.
- Bleach present for sanitizing (killing of germs) at the end of the night. Lysol wipes used throughout the day for quick cleaning.
- General sanitation level is good.
- No signs of pests.
- FoodSafe certified staff present.
