HAZARD RATING FOR YOUR FACILITY: Low (≤15) Total Score = 13
Critical Hazards: Total Number: 2
205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Eggs left at room temperature for approximately one hour (temperature: ~15-16C).
Corrective Action(s): Eggs immediately placed back into the glass door cooler. Do not keep eggs out at room temperature - all potentially hazardous foods must be kept under temperature control to avoid the growth of bacteria that could cause foodborne illness.
Violation Score: 5

302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): 1. Deli slicer observed in unsanitary condition around the blade guard of the machine.
2. Knives stored inside of a bucket had caked-in grime.
Corrective Action(s): 1. Deli slicer disassembled, cleaned, sanitized, and allowed to air dry at time of inspection. Note that the deli slicer must be cleaned at least every 4 hours (if continuous use) or after every use (if not continuous) or if cutting frozen, raw meats.
2. Knives were run through the dishwasher at time of inspection.

All food contact surfaces must be maintained in sanitary condition. Unsanitary equipment (e.g. knives, deli slicers) can lead to the growth of bacteria that could result in foodborne illness.
Violation Score: 5

Non-Critical Hazards: Total Number: 1
209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Storage practices will require some improvement:
1) Bean sprouts stored directly below raw beef in walk-in cooler.
2) Items left uncovered: eggs and spring rolls in prep cooler, bean sprouts in glass door cooler.
Corrective Action(s): 1) Bean sprouts moved above raw beef.
2) Items covered at time of inspection. Please ensure that you keep all items covered when not in use. Ready-to-eat items do not have a step for eliminating bacteria; therefore it is essential that they be protected from potential contamination.
Violation Score: 3
