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 across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 22, 2026. For example:
3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?
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 June 4, 2024. For example:
6 Are the premises designed and equipped to ensure safe food handling?

- F2.3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?
- Observation(s): Spray bottle of bleach strength only noted about 50 ppm; require at least 200 ppm. Advised to make a small batch daily so the strength doesn't dissipate over a couple of days. Noted and discussed the 3rd compartment built-in drain table is too small for efficient drying of bowls and utensils.
- F2.6 Are the premises designed and equipped to ensure safe food handling?
- Observation(s): As discussed in F2.3, install a drip/drain rack above the sanitizing sink for more drying space to ensure efficient drying. As discussed, recommend a durable, non-absorbent, non-rusting rack design for easy cleaning.
- F2.6A Warewashing equipment must be of the type and capacity to meet the needs of the premises.
