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.

• Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

  Cleaning products, sanitizers and pesticides must be labelled and stored away from food and food-contact surfaces. Inspectors flag chemicals that could end up in food, as well as pest treatments applied without proper supervision.

  Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on January 27, 2026. For example: Chemical(s) used appropriately (concentration, contact time, tasks, etc..). [s.19]

• 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 13, 2024. For example: Food-contact surfaces and equipment are cleaned & sanitized as often as necessary. [s.22]

• 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 July 8, 2022. For example: All food handling room(s) maintained in clean and sanitary manner, free from clutter, and not used for sleeping. [s. 7(1)(b), (e), (f)]

• 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 March 13, 2024. For example: At all times, there is at least one certified food handler present every hour of operation. [s.32]

• 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 once on July 26, 2023. For example: All operator(s) is/are clean, wash hands, reasonable precautions to ensure hair is suitably restrained, and wear clean garments when handling food and free from diseases. [s. 33]
