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 once on December 12, 2023. For example: Are food temperatures during storage and processing being controlled to maximize food safety?

  • Food safety training and certificationLower risk

    Most jurisdictions require a certified food handler or manager on site, and some require allergen or food-worker training. These findings mean the paperwork or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean food was handled unsafely.

    Recorded 2 times on December 12, 2023. For example: Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Critical)?

  • 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 June 5, 2024. For example: Are utensils and equipment maintained in a condition and a manner that ensures the safe handling of food?

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.

    Recorded once on December 12, 2023. For example: Does the facility have a valid permit and does the facility operate in compliance with the conditions of that permit, or is the facility awaiting approval prior to operation?

      • The ice cabinet at the drive-thru was being left open. The inspector informed the staff and the manager that the ice cabinet must be kept closed at all times.

      • Washed dishes and utensils were observed drying on dishwasher racks placed directly on the floor. The inspector informed the manager that all kitchen equipment, utensils, and dishwares must be dried, stored, and placed at least 6 inches above the floor to prevent the unintended risk of re-contamination, especially after dishwashing. The manager mentioned that they had nowhere else to put the drying racks. Thus, please develop a plan for properly drying washed equipment and utensils, as discussed.
    • 10. Are food temperatures during storage and processing being controlled to maximize food safety?
      • The cream and milk dispenser at the drive-thru area was not cooling adequately. The thermometer on the cooler was at 17°C and the cream stored in the dispenser was measured at 17.9°C. The cream and milk were discarded by the manager during inspection. Please contact a service technician to repair the unit. In the meantime, as discussed during the inspection, the cream and milk will be manually dispensed using jugs and be stored in a cooler immediately after use until the dispenser is fixed an able to cool below 4°C.
    • 19. Does the facility have a valid permit and does the facility operate in compliance with the conditions of that permit, or is the facility awaiting approval prior to operation?
      • The food handling permit was posted in the office located in the kitchen area. The inspector informed the manager that the food handling permit must be visible to the public. The manager posted the food handling permit in the front counter area during the inspection.
