1 of 2 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 2 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Food temperature control and Protecting food from contamination.

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 April 10, 2026. For example: 205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

    Recorded once on April 10, 2026. For example: 209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]

About this data

These results come from Fraser Health Authority, which inspects food premises and other public facilities in this area. We republish the authority's public disclosure data and refresh it regularly; the official record is the final word.

2 inspections

  1. Routine Inspection

    2 infractions

    • 205 - Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
      • Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Various inserts containing ingredients in the kitchen (guacamole, deli meat, cheese, bacon, etc.) are being stored in plastic inserts set into large containers of ice. Staff indicate that some ingredients sit for several hours in these units before they are fully consumed. Temperatures of the food items in the inserts are above 4 degrees Celsius (~10-14 Celsius).
      • Corrective Action(s): *Discussed possible solutions with operator:
      • 1) Add cold water to the ice to promote better conductivity of the cold into the food inserts
      • 2) Replace plastic inserts with metal inserts (better conductivity)
      • 3) Limit the amount of foods items stored in the inserts, to prevent foods being above 4 Celsius for more than 2 hours (maximum time allowed at ambient temperatures)
      • 4) Purchase a countertop refrigerator unit to store the food items at 4 Celsius (or below)
      • *Operator directed to add cold water to the ice to improve conduction of cold temperature into the inserts while onsite, or alternatively, restrict the amount of food stored in each insert, such that they'll be consumed within 2 hours.
      • *Operator
      • Violation Score: 5
    • 209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
      • Observation: Multiple scoops observed being held inside ingredient bags/bins with the handles in contact with the food ingredients (sugar, flour, etc.)
      • Corrective Action(s): Adjust storage practices for scoops to ensure that the handles of the scoops do not come into contact with the food ingredients. (ie. remind all staff to store scoops in designated holders/containers, not deposited in the food ingredients).
      • Violation Score: 3
