What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on April 25, 2023. For example:
206 - Critical Hot potentially hazardous food stored/displayed below 60 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on April 25, 2023. For example:
502 - In operator’s absence, no staff on duty has FOODSAFE Level 1 or equivalent [s. 10(2)]

- Observation: Potentially hazardous hot foods observed below 60°C. (Public Health significance) - All potentially hazardous foods must be stored at below 4°C or above 60°C - out of the danger zone to prevent bacterial growth and possibly food borne illness
- Corrective Action: Discovered their thermometer is not working thus the temperature records are inaccurate. Staff is aware to purchase a new thermometer as soon as possible. Ensure hot holding units maintain a temperature of 60°C or more, monitor and adjust the temperatures, and have serviced as required.

(Public Health Significance) Refrigeration temperatures for perishable foods must be less than 4°C to prevent the growth of disease causing bacteria and toxin production.
- Corrective Action: 1. Move potentially hazardous foods to working refrigeration units immediately. 2 Have the mini fridge serviced to ensure that the mini fridge can maintain 4 degree celsius and below. 3.Monitor and log temperatures regularly, adjust and have repaired as necessary to provide a temperature of 4° at all times.
