    • 11. Are there adequate and properly operating dish washing facilities to effectively clean and sanitize equipment and utensils (unless noted elsewhere)(Critical)?
      • The glasswasher/dishwasher in the bar station area was leaking and overflowing. The operators mentioned that a technician was already contacted and in the middle of addressing the overflowing and leaking issue, and that some parts needed to be ordered.

    • 16. Is the facility free of unapproved animals, vermin and/or insects (unless noted elsewhere), and maintained to prevent the entry or harbourage of pests?

The inspector informed the operator that all openings to the outside, including doors and windows, must be tight-fitting to prevent potential pest infestation.**FIX THE GAP ON THE BACKDOOR.**NOTE (2024-04-16). This violation was not looked at during the inspection; however, please be advised that this deficiency is already past its target completion date and must already be fixed by now; this violation will be checked for compliance on the next inspection.

The written procedure should also include cleaning and sanitization instructions.
  5. Monitoring Inspection

    4 infractions

    • 04. Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
      • There were cleaning cloths stored on food-contact surfaces. The inspector informed the staff/operator that cleaning cloths must be fully submerged in a sanitizer bucket solution at all times after use. The cleaning cloths were stored in a sanitizer bucket solution afterwards.
    • 04. Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?
      • The QUAT-based sanitizer solution used to sanitize food-contact surfaces was measured at 100-ppm. The staff/manager was instructed to create a new sanitizer solution, which was measured at 200-ppm. The inspector informed the staff/manager that a 200-ppm QUAT sanitizer solution must be maintained at all times during the operations. Less than 200 ppm QUAT concentration means inadequate sanitization and more than 400 ppm means that QUAT residues could stay in food-contact surfaces, which contaminates food.
    • 16. Is the facility free of unapproved animals, vermin and/or insects (unless noted elsewhere), and maintained to prevent the entry or harbourage of pests?
      • There was a gap on the backdoor. This would allow the potential entry of pests and vermin into the facility.
