HAZARD RATING FOR YOUR FACILITY: Low (≤15) Total Score = 0
Critical Hazards: Total Number: 2
205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Observation: Cooked rice stored above cold holding unit in food prep area. Rice probed at 9C and stored at room temperature. Operator mentioned rice is stored at room temperature for less than 2 hours and thrown out after 2 hours.
Health rationale: Rice stored above 4C for more than 2 hours can cause exponential microbial growth and/or toxin production. Without time stamps on food, it is difficult to monitor time to ensure microbes do not grow and/or toxins do not form.
Corrective action: Rice was stored in cold holding unit during inspection. Operator was educated about how to properly store rice. Rice must be stored at 4C or lower or if kept at room temperature, a time stamp should be place don the container to ensure it is not kept out for more than 2 hours.
Corrective Action(s):
Violation Score:

301 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not maintained in sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Observation: Rice scoop placed outside rice warmer placed in room temperature water.
Health rationale: Rice scoops not placed in ice water (placed in room temperature water) harbors bacteria and/or toxin production which could be transferred onto the food.
Corrective action: Water in rice scoop container was changed during inspection. Ensure ice is placed inside the rice scoop container to prevent microbe growth and/or toxin production. A timer set for 2 hours may also be used and scoop water should be changed and scoops should be cleaned and sanitized every 2 hours at minimum.
Corrective Action(s):

306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
Observation: Observation: Build up of grease observed on ventilation hoods in kitchen. Ventilation hood maintenance cleaning was due in Jan 2021.
Health rationale: Grease may contaminate food and attract pests. Grease build up is also a fire hazard.
