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.
Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk
Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.
Recorded once on February 21, 2024. For example:
308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
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 once on June 29, 2023. For example:
205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
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 May 26, 2022. For example:
311 - Premises not maintained as per approved plans [s. 6(1)(b)]

- Corrective Action(s):
- 1) Immediately stop using the glasswasher, and use the dishwasher in the "Concession" or "Outtakes" areas to wash and sanitize glassware. Place a sign on the machine so staff do not use the glasswasher. Call a service company in to fix the machine, so it is operating as per the manufacture's specifications and the [I2] is 12.5ppm. When the glasswasher is fixed, contact our office to schedule a follow-up inspection.
