306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]

2) There is accumulated food on the floor under all sinks, tables, storage shelves and racks, and equipment. The food will attract and harbor pests (cockroaches, mice, flies, etc.).
Corrective Action(s): 1) Wash and clean the ceiling tiles, air diffusers, and upper walls to remove the dust. Ensure this is being done on a weekly basis to prevent dust accumulating.
**Correction date: Sept. 7/21**

308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
Observation: 1) The faucet in the 2-comp prep sink, across from the dishwasher, had continuously running cold water. Constantly running water is a source that pests will be attracted to. Staff explained that the tap is broken and on order.
2) The assembly cooler, across from the deep fryer in the cook station, was 14C. Bacteria will grow in food at this temperature. Staff explained that the cooler is constantly being opened, to remove food for cooking, and that it is found very close to the hot cooking equipment.
Corrective Action(s): 1) Replace the broken cold water tap, so that it can completely turn the cold water off and on.
**Correction date: Sept. 7/21**
