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.

  • PestsHigher risk

    Signs of mice, rats, cockroaches or flies, or gaps and clutter that let them get in or hide. Pests carry bacteria and can contaminate food and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.

    Recorded once on December 16, 2024. For example: 305 - Conditions observed that may allow entrance/harbouring/breeding of pests [s. 26(b),(c)]

  • 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 7, 2022. For example: 205 - Critical Repeat Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]

  • 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 December 16, 2024. For example: 502 - Repeat In operator’s absence, no staff on duty has FOODSAFE Level 1 or equivalent [s. 10(2)]

  3. Routine Inspection

    2 infractions

    • 305 - Conditions observed that may allow entrance/harbouring/breeding of pests [s. 26(b),(c)]
      • Observation: The concrete floor below the backdoor where store supplies are received is in a state of disrepair. There were extensive cracks, chips observed, and the door was not weather-stripping. (Public Health Significance) It is expected that the backdoor be weather-stripping to prevent entrance of pests, rodents into the facility. This will prevent cross contamination of food and discourage harbourage of pests.
      • Corrective Action: Ensure that the inner door that leads directly to the kitchen area is always closed to prevent entrance of pest. The backdoor should be fixed to ensure compliance with regulatory requirement.
    • 502 - Repeat In operator’s absence, no staff on duty has FOODSAFE Level 1 or equivalent [s. 10(2)]
      • Observation: There was no FOODSAFE certified employee on shift (Public Health Significance). A FOODSAFE or its equivalence certified employee is expected to be available every shift, to help identify, monitor and verify steps in food handling, preparation etc., that can lead to food safety non-compliance in the facility and promptly correct it, thereby preventing outbreak of potential foodborne illnesses and protecting the public.
      • Corrective Action: Operator should ensure a FOODSAFE certified employee is on duty for every shift.
