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 2 times on November 15, 2024. For example: Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Equipment has to be built from cleanable materials, kept in good repair and stored properly. These findings are mostly about upkeep, like a cracked shelf, a worn gasket or utensils stored the wrong way. They are generally lower risk but show how well the kitchen is maintained.

    Recorded once on November 15, 2024. For example: Are utensils and equipment maintained in a condition and a manner that ensures the safe handling of food?

    • 04. Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
      • The QUAT-based sanitizer solution used to sanitize food-contact surfaces was measured at 0-ppm. The staff was instructed to create a new sanitizer solution, which was measured at 200-ppm. The inspector informed the staff and the manager that a 200-ppm QUAT sanitizer solution must be maintained at all times during the operations. Less than 200 ppm QUAT concentration means inadequate sanitization and more than 400 ppm means that QUAT residues could stay in food-contact surfaces, which contaminates food. Please ensure to test the QUAT concentration each time a solution is made, then daily before use, and recommended to check the solution every 2-4 hours throughout operations.
    • 11. Are there adequate and properly operating dish washing facilities to effectively clean and sanitize equipment and utensils (unless noted elsewhere)(Critical)?
      • The maximum temperature of the high-temperature mechanical dishwasher was measured at the dish level using a maximum-registering thermometer to be 68.7°C. Further re-testing of the dishwasher resulted to a maximum temperature of 70.8°C. The staff were not recording the temperatures daily. The inspector informed the staff and the manager that the dishwasher must be tested daily, and its maximum temperature be recorded daily. A dishwasher monitoring template will be provided with this report. Please ensure to record the temperatures of the dishwasher before use every day. A maximum-registering thermometer was available on-site.**RECORD TEMPERATURES DAILY BEFORE USE.
    • 22. Are utensils and equipment maintained in a condition and a manner that ensures the safe handling of food?
      • Scoops for dry product were stored inside the bins with the scoops covered in product. All scoops should be stored away from the food product or in a separate food-safe container, then cleaned and sanitized daily, to prevent the risk of contamination of the bulk ingredients. The scoops were removed.
