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 March 31, 2026. For example:
Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
PestsHigher risk
Signs of mice, rats, cockroaches or flies, or gaps and clutter that let them get in or hide. Pests carry bacteria and can contaminate food and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.
Recorded once on March 31, 2026. For example:
Is the facility free of unapproved animals, vermin and/or insects (unless noted elsewhere), and maintained to prevent the entry or harbourage of pests?

- Cloths were not being immersed in sanitizer solution during periods of inactivity, which promotes the growth of pathogens and could lead to cross-contamination. Corrective action: Cloths must be immersed in an approved sanitizer solution during periods of inactivity.
- 16. Is the facility free of unapproved animals, vermin and/or insects (unless noted elsewhere), and maintained to prevent the entry or harbourage of pests?
- Recycling (bottles/cans) is being kept in the basement storage area, which is attracting and providing harborage for flying insects. The operator indicated that the recycling is taken out every 10 days. Corrective action: Recycling must be taken out more frequently and/or stored in a manner that does not attract or harbour pests. This is especially important given that there is food storage in the basement.
