Violation Score: 9

306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
Observation: Build up of grease, dirt, and food debris in the following areas:
- frequent contact surfaces (sink tap handles, cooler/freezer door handles)
- underneath prep cooler
- dry storage area
- inside the walk in cooler
- on shelves of wire racks inside the walk in cooler
- underneath two compartment sink
- floors throughout the kitchen
- underside of shelves at the prep table
Corrective Action(s): Clean the areas noted above. You must implement a regular cleaning schedule. These areas will be checked during the follow up inspection.
Date to be corrected: Immediately.
Violation Score: 3

307 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not of suitable design/material [s. 16; s. 19]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Cardboard being used to line shelves. There was visible build up of grease on the cardboard.
Corrective Action(s): Cardboard is not approved to be used in the kitchen to line shelves. Discard the cardboard.
Violation Score: 3

308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
Observation: Walk in cooler measured at 15C at the time of the inspection. Both the thermometer inside the walk in cooler and gauge measured 15C. The operator insisted that the recent heavy use during the lunch rush was the cause of the temperature increase. The internal temperature readings of multiple food items were measured at between 11 and 18C:
- Raw pork: 11C
- Cooked noodles: 15C
- Cooked beef strips: 18C
The operator stated that these food items were stored for < 2hours. The temperature log recorded that the walk in cooler was measured at 4C in the morning.
Corrective Action(s): You must call for service of the walk in cooler. The operator failed to demonstrate adequate temperature of the walk in cooler. All coolers must maintain temperature < or = 4C at all times. 15C is too high. Transfer the food items inside a working cooler at < or = 4C. This is a repeat violation and failing to comply with this requirement will lead to a violation ticket.
Date to be corrected: Immediately.
Violation Score: 3

309 - Chemicals, cleansers, & similar agents stored or labeled improperly [s. 27]
Observation: Cleaner (could not be verified) was stored in a Sriracha sauce bottle. The operator claimed that it was bleach solution but chlorine test strip showed no bleach in the solution.
Corrective Action(s): Label all chemical bottles.
Date to be corrected: Today and ongoing.
Violation Score: 3
