- 205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
- Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4C.
- Observation: Preparation cooler (for pancakes toppings) was holding whipped butter, chopped tomatoes, shredded cheese, and sour cream at 8C internal temperature.
- Correction: Operator moved the items from the inserts to the walk-in cooler for rapid cooling as they had put in the toppings in the cooler before lunch rush (less than 2 hours ago). Keep lids closed in future.
- Rationale: Potentially hazardous foods can harbour pathogens and toxin accumulation when kept at temperatures above 4C or less than 60C. Adequate cooling temperatures and cold holding protects food from contamination and spoilage.
- Corrective Action(s):
- Violation Score:
- 302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
- Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized.
- Observation: Sanitizer buckets did not contain detectable chlorine or QUATS at the front service area or the back kitchen. Staff was observed mixing detergent with bleach when making the sanitizer solution.
- Correction: Operator made fresh bleach solutions for all sanitizer buckets staff was asked not to mix bleach with soap as that depletes the chlorine residual and makes it a less effective sanitizer.
- Rationale: Adequate sanitizer (100-200ppm chlorine residual solution or 200ppm QUATS) ensures the food contact surfaces and equipment are thoroughly cleaned and safe for food and consumption. Inadequate sanitizer will cause pathogens to grow and toxins to accumulate which can cause a foodborne illness.
- Corrective Action(s):
- Violation Score:
- 401 - Adequate handwashing stations not available for employees [s. 21(4)]
- Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Adequate handwashing stations not available for employees.
- Observation: All paper-towel dispensers were not set properly to allow for the rolls to roll out through the dispenser. Staff was lifting the top of the dispenser to access the disposable paper towels.
- Correction: Set up the paper towel dispenser properly to ensure staff does not have to handle the dispenser after washing hands. Operator corrected the violation at the time of inspection.
- Rationale: Handling the dispenser after washing hands can contaminate the hands again which can then cross-contaminate food. Contaminated food can cause a foodborne illness in consumers.
