308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): 1) The assembly cooler, just outside of the walk-in-cooler, has a broken door and another door doesn't close tightly. The cooler is having difficulty keeping food below 4C/41F at all times. This will allow bacteria to grow in the food. Staff stated that they are waiting for replacement parts.
2) The handle on the reach-in-cooler (storing condiments) by the deep fryers is broken and the door is unable to remain tightly closed. The cooler is having difficulty keeping food below 4C at all times. This will allow bacteria to grow in the food. Staff stated that they are waiting for replacement parts.
3) There is a leak in the ice making machine, water is dripping on the floor and pooling infront of the machine. This will attract and breed pests.
Corrective Action(s): 1) Repair or replace the damaged/broken cooler doors and handles with new ones, so that the doors can tightly close and the cooler is able to keep food 4C/40F or colder at all times. Staff must monitor the temperatures of these cooler units, if temperature raise above 4C/40F for more than 2 hours, all foods must be thrown away.

315 - Refrigeration units and hot holding equipment lack accurate thermometers [s. 19(2)]
Observation: Thermometers were not found in EACH cooler, freezer, and/or hot holding unit. Staff are unable to monitor the internal temp of these units, and are relying on the equipment's thermostat. This is not acceptable, as the equipment's thermostat may be defective, and/or it only reads what the thermostat is set at, NOT the actual temperature inside the unit.
Corrective Action(s): Purchase and install a thermometer in EACH cooler, freezer, and hot holding unit.
