301 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not maintained in sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
Observation: The following deficiencies were noted with respect to sanitation of equipment:
1. Wire shelving in stand-up cooler and walk-in cooler is coated with grease and debris.
2. Ventilation canopy is saturated with grease.
Corrective Action(s): 1. Remove the grease from the wire shelving and wipe with a sanitized cloth. The coolers must be maintained in sanitary condition.

302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation: 1. Bleach solution in sanitizing pail was too strong (>> 200 ppm)
2. Knives in knife holder were soiled with flour and food debris.
3. Sieves and large utensils next to stand-up cooler were filled with debris and grime. Bottom of tray holding the utensils is soiled.
Corrective Action(s): 1. Bleach solution was re-prepared with a concentration of 100-200 ppm. Another sanitizing pail was added for the middle of the kitchen. Ensure that bleach is not over 200 ppm, as it is not safely approved for use as a sanitizer beyond 200 ppm.
2. Knives were cleaned and sanitized. Ensure that knives are adequately cleaned and sanitized before placing them into the knife holder to avoid cross contamination.
3. Tray was emptied, washed, and sanitized. Utensils were placed inside the dishwasher prior to re-use.
Violation Score: 5

Non-Critical Hazards: Total Number: 1
209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
Observation: 1. Majority of food items were uncovered including cooked chicken, meats, and vegetables in both the walk-in cooler and the stand-up cooler.
2. Large flat container with raw beef was placed directly on the floor.
3. Buckets without handles were placed directly in dry storage items including corn starch and flour, resulting in potential contamination when it is scooped out.
4. Left compartment of two-compartment sink was filled with raw beef immersed in bloody water.
Corrective Action(s): 1. Cover all food items with a food-grade lid or plastic seran wrap.
2. Raw beef container was sanitized with 200 ppm bleach, then placed on tabletop.
3. Separate scoops will be obtained for each of the dry storage items and stored outside the container.
4. Do not use the left compartment sink to directly hold raw beef, as it was not fully sanitized prior to use. Use an appropriate utensil (e.g. food-grade container, sieve, or perforated bowl) using cold running water if you wish to drain blood from the meat. This was achieved at time of inspection.
