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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on December 13, 2024. For example:
302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(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 May 13, 2025. For example:
209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 21, 2025. For example:
502 - In operator’s absence, no staff on duty has FOODSAFE Level 1 or equivalent [s. 10(2)]

- Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Meassured sanitizer in unlabelled spray bottle at 0 ppm. Another unlabelled bottle with undefined product in spray bottle. Both dumped.

To achieve proper manual dishwashing fill first sink with water and dish detergent, rinse off in middle sink (either filled with water or with sprayer) and finish dishwashing by immersing clean dishes in third sink full of sanitizer solution. Leave until visibly dirty water or quats no longer at 200 ppm.
