HAZARD RATING FOR YOUR FACILITY: Moderate (16-29) Total Score = 21
Critical Hazards: There are no critical hazards.
Non-Critical Hazards: Total Number: 3
304 - Premises not free of pests [s. 26(a)]
Observation: There is an excessive amount of mice droppings in the dry storage room, and under the cooking equipment and shelving in the kitchen. Two dead mice observed on the glue boards in the dry storage room. There is a lot of clutter and the shelving in the kitchen are not on wheels and can therefore not be rolled out easily for cleaning purposes. Operator has a pest control company on contract.
Corrective Action(s): All shelving must be on wheels so they can be rolled out for cleaning underneath and behind them. Clean all the areas where mice droppings were observed. Remove the dead mice. Have the pest control company coming in weekly until droppings are no longer observed. Remove all dishware and rewash them. Store all foods in pest proof containers.

-Operator has started selling rice and curry dishes for catering, where they prepare and cool the foods and customers come by to pick the order up. These menu items have NOT been approved. As discussed numerous times, you CANNOT expand your menu without approval. There is no walk-in cooler on-site so the large volumes of food cannot be adequately cooled down. Discontinue this immediately. You are only approved to make and sell foods frozen foods. Update your website to reflect this. If you want to add to this, you MUST get approval first.
