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.

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on August 4, 2021. For example: 5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?

  • 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 October 28, 2015. For example: 8 - Are equipment, food contact surfaces and utensils washed, sanitized and stored in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?

  • 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 October 31, 2013. For example: 2 - Are potentially hazardous foods stored or displayed 4°C or colder or 60°C or hotter?

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 13, 2016. For example: 4 - Are the premises, equipment and utensils designed and maintained to ensure safe and sanitary food handling?

  • 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 October 28, 2015. For example: 18 - Are the sanitation procedures (Sanitation Plan) current and available on site?

    • F2.5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?
      • Observation(s): Observed the compressor fan, door, and shelving of the walk-in fridge with dirt/debris starting to accumulate. Other refrigeration unit doors had food debris buildup in gaskets. Pests are carriers of illness-causing microorganisms and can contaminate food and food contact surfaces with those microorganisms. The premises must be maintained in a clean and sanitary manner to prevent attracting pests to help prevent contamination of food and food contact surfaces. Without consistent cleaning, the risk of contamination for food products from physical hazards is increased. When fans blowing onto food are allowed to buildup dirt/dust debris, those physical hazards may find their way into food products which then get served to members of the public. Operator stated that she would have staff clean these areas as part of routine cleaning starting the night of the inspection. To follow up with operator that these areas have been cleaned and are part of ongoing cleaning practices by August 10th.
