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 once on September 22, 2026. For example: Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?

  • 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 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on September 22, 2026. For example: Is the facility properly constructed and maintained in a state of good repair to allow for the safe and sanitary handling of food?

  • Food safety training and certificationLower risk

    Most jurisdictions require a certified food handler or manager on site, and some require allergen or food-worker training. These findings mean the paperwork or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean food was handled unsafely.

    Recorded once on September 22, 2026. For example: Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?

  • 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 once on September 22, 2026. For example: Are utensils and equipment maintained in a condition and a manner that ensures the safe handling of food?

    • 04. Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
      • The quaternary ammonium (Quat) sanitizing solution was tested and found to be below the required concentration of 200 ppm. A sanitizing solution maintained below the recommended concentration may not provide effective disinfection of food contact surfaces. The deficiency was discussed with the manager, who corrected the concentration during the inspection. The sanitizing solution was re-tested and confirmed to be at the required concentration of 200 ppm.
    • 08. Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?
      • A portable speaker was observed on a food service tray. Personal items stored in food preparation, service, or storage areas may pose a risk of contamination to food, food contact surfaces, and equipment. This concern was discussed with the manager and corrected during the inspection. The speaker was removed and relocated to a designated personal storage area, and the food service tray was placed in the dishwashing sink for cleaning and sanitizing
    • 21. Is the facility properly constructed and maintained in a state of good repair to allow for the safe and sanitary handling of food?
      • A gap was observed along the rear door assembly, and duct tape was used as a temporary repair material along the wall.This opening or gap may allow for pest entry, and the duct tape is not easily cleanable and durable.Repair and properly seal affected areas with durable, smooth and easily cleanable material
    • 22. Are utensils and equipment maintained in a condition and a manner that ensures the safe handling of food?
      • Duct tape was observed on the exterior surface of the refrigerator door/frame and appeared to be used as a repair material.Duct tape is not a durable, smooth, or easily cleanable material and may deteriorate over time. Surfaces repaired with duct tape can be difficult to effectively clean and sanitize, potentially contributing to the accumulation of dirt and debris.Repair affected areas using durable, smooth, non-absorbent, and easily cleanable materials and maintain the refrigerator in good repair.
