- 205 - Critical Cold potentially hazardous food stored/displayed above 4 °C. [s. 14(2)]
- Observation: (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION) Potentially hazardous food items such as deli meats and boiled eggs in the buffet were measured to have an internal temperature of 7.5°C and 7.8°C at the time of inspection. (Public Health Significance) - Potentially hazardous food items when stored in the temperature danger zone (4°C- 60°C) causes the growth of illness causing pathogens. Such food items if consumed may result in food-borne illness.
- Corrective Action: The Operator was requested to discard the food items stored in the temperature zone at the time of inspection. -Potentially hazardous food items must be stored out of the temperature danger zone.
- 302 - Critical Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
- Observation: (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION) Wiping cloths were observed to be stored on kicthen counters. (Public Health Significance) - Wiping cloths when stored outside the sanitizer solution could cause growth of pathogens which can contaminate food contact surfaces and food items. Such contaminated food items if consumed may result in food-borne illness.
- Corrective Action: Operator was able to put thewiping cloth back in the sanitizer bucket at the time of inspection.
- 302 - Critical Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
- Observation: Food handling equipment (meat slicer) had build-up of food residuals and is not adequately washed and sanitized. (Public Health Significance) - Food residuals left on inadequately cleaned meat slicer are exposed to room temperature which may lead to growth of disease causing pathogens and toxins, such food handling equipment (meat slicer) may cross-contaminate other food products when reused.
- Corrective Action: Operator to ensure that the meat slicer is routinely cleaned and sanitized.

- Observation: Potentially hazardous foods are displayed at above 4°C in 3 line coolers at the buffet area. The line cooler close to the entrance had lunch meat with an internal temperature measured at 8.7°C. The line cooler containing fruits had an internal temperature measured at 7.4°C (melon). The line cooler beside the pizza hot holding machine containing egg salad was measured at 5.2°C for its internal temperature. The operator stated that the food was prepared and kept in the line coolers at 11:00 AM and will be disposed around 3:00 PM
- Corrective Action: All potentially hazardous foods must be stored at or below 4°C or above 60°C to minimize growth of pathogens and toxin production which may lead to foodborne illnesses when consumed by the public. Operator was told to use time labelling system to monitor the food moved to the identified line coolers at the buffet area. The operator was instructed to discard the food once it crosses 4 hr mark.
- 302 - Critical Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
- Observation: Meat slicer beside the front kitchen area was not cleaned and sanitized properly and it contained the meat residuals attached to it under the hard to clean surfaces
- Corrective Action: The meat residuals left on the slicer is exposed to room temperature which may lead to growth of pathogens and toxin formation and may cross contaminate the other food products when the slicer is reused. The operator was told to dissemble the meat slicer and clean and sanitize the equipment as per the manufacturer’s guidelines
- 308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
