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 August 25, 2022. For example:
205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.
Recorded once on August 25, 2022. For example:
209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.
Recorded once on April 19, 2018. For example:
306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on April 18, 2019. For example:
501 - Operator does not have FOODSAFE Level 1 or Equivalent [s. 10(1)]

- 205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
- Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Observation: Carrot cake with cream cheese icing left out at room temperature for <2 hours.
- Health rationale: Cream cheese icing is a dairy product which is a potentially hazardous food if left out at room temperature. Exponential microbe growth and/or toxin formation can occur and can cause foodborne illness when consumed.
- Corrective action: Operator placed all carrot cake pieces into cold storage. Ensure all potentially hazardous foods are stored below 4C or above 60C to prevent microbial growth and/or toxin formation and to prevent foodborne illness. Operator mentioned they will leave plain carrot cake out at room temperature and ice each slice per order (icing will be stored in cooler).
