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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 21, 2026. For example: 304 - Premises not free of pests [s. 26(a)]

  • Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

    Hands are the main way germs like norovirus move from people to food. Inspectors look for stocked, accessible handwashing sinks, staff washing hands when required, hair restraints, and sick employees being kept away from food. Gaps here can spread illness quickly.

    Recorded once on September 21, 2026. For example: 401 - Adequate handwashing stations not available for employees [s. 21(4)]

  • 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 September 25, 2025. For example: 209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]

  2. Follow-Up Inspection

    0 infractions

  3. Routine Inspection

    1 infraction

    • 209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
      • Observation: Fly strips installed directly over the food prep areas and ingredients
      • Corrective Action(s): -Remove these strips from the food preparation areas today. They can be installed in hallway areas, or areas where there is no food preparation
      • Violation Score: 3
      • 306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
      • Observation: Cleaning is required for several areas. Fume hood area both above the vents, and behind the fume hood removable vents has significant grease build up. Cleaning is also required behind the main cooking area to remove food and grease build up that is present. Dry storage areas under the shelving require cleaning as well
      • Corrective Action(s): These areas require cleaning today, and also regular scheduled cleaning to remove food debris and grease.
      • Violation Score: 15
      • 307 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not of suitable design/material [s. 16; s. 19]
      • Observation: Floor area in the kitchen near the dishwasher found to be covered in several wooden boards. The grease trap is being replaced and from discussions with the staff, Metro Vancouver has required vents to be installed for the grease trap and it sounds like a follow up inspection is required for the installed grease trap before it can be covered.
      • Corrective Action(s): The boards covering the hole are not easily cleanable, and can absorb moisture. This project needs to be completed as soon as possible, given that the main area affected is the dishwashing area where moisture and water is common. Obtain some kind of moisture resistant/slip resistant material to cover the wood boards, such as rubber mats by September 26. I'd like to see this project completed by no later than October 9, 2025. Once the grease trap can be covered, full repair of the floor back to good condition is required. Construction can not occur during operating hours. Ensure that the sink area caulking is also redone once the project is completed.
      • Violation Score: 9
