Ce dossier provient d'Alberta Health Services Environmental Public Health, qui inspecte les établissements alimentaires partout en Alberta. Les inspecteurs notent toute infraction aux règlements sanitaires applicables à chaque visite. Le résultat ci-dessus correspond à la dernière inspection au dossier.
L'Alberta enregistre chaque visite soit comme une inspection routinière (avec d'éventuelles infractions notées), soit comme un ordre de fermeture. Si vous voyez des infractions listées sans ordre de fermeture, l'exploitant a été autorisé à poursuivre ses activités tout en les corrigeant. Un ordre de fermeture signifie que l'inspecteur a exigé l'arrêt du service à la clientèle jusqu'à la correction des problèmes.

- Many damp and dirty cloths were stored on the counter top. Facility currently uses spray bottles and not buckets. This does not seem to be effective as staff are not changing out the cloths once they become damp or dirty. Recommend placing the cloths directly in a sanitizer bucket when not using., - Staff said the white cloths are supposed to be used only for hot food, however, multiple cloths were noted to have lots of food marks on them/ were dirty.

No handwashing was performed after using gloves which had been on when prepping raw meat., , Ensure handwashing is done prior to putting gloves on and after taking them off.
- The garnish station which was holding high risk items measured 12C with a probe thermometer. There were small inserts in a metal container and the large metal container was on the ice. This is ineffective at keeping the food in the inserts cold. It had been like this for just under 2 hours. , - Prepped coleslaw salad was in small bowls sitting at room temperature for over 2 hours. This was discarded onsite. , , Ensure high risk foods are kept cold (4C or less) or hot (60C or higher). If putting small inserts on ice, ensure the ice water bath is completely surrounding the insert. The insert needs to be nestled inside of the ice. Keep small portions inside the insert and metal inserts will be better than plastic ones. Do not store high risk items (ie.salad) at room temperature. After it is prepared, place back in the cooler until it is ordered.

Ensure foods is stored off the ground. , - Ensure scoops are stored in such a way to prevent contamination of the food product. Ensure handles do not touch the dry food product; do not use scoops without handles.

No (outstanding) - there was still inconsistency in recording daily food safety temperatures using logs/checklists (which are to be completed each work day in full, with copies available on-site for review, for a period of 90 days). At time of inspection, there were only three days of fully completed and available daily food safety temperature monitoring records. Staff are to be adequately trained and aware of this requirement.
No (outstanding) - note that numerous cardboard flats of brown raw shell eggs were being stored in the walk-in cooler on a middle section of shelving, above an open container of onions. As broken / cracked raw shell eggs can 'leak' onto foods stored below, the eggs are to be stored on the lowest shelf or on a metal tray (i.e. baking sheet) or bin to prevent any possible cross-contamination onto vegetables or other ready-to-eat food products being stored below.
No - staff were not being consistent in recording daily food safety temperatures using logs/checklists and are to ensure continued daily compliance is implemented and achieved.
No - note that seven cardboard flats of brown raw shell eggs were being stored in the walk-in cooler on a middle section of shelving, above an open container of onions and open bags of celery. As there can be small 'leaking' from broken raw shell eggs, the eggs are to be stored on the lowest shelf or onto a metal tray (i.e. baking sheet) to prevent any possible cross-contamination onto vegetables or other ready-to-eat food products being stored below.
No - previously identified conditions noted regarding "north wall above deli table is showing damage from contact with insert lids" and "electrical plate cover missing on white tile wall" were not observed and will be examined during re-inspection within 30 days.
