Toronto Public Health issued two conditional passes to restaurants, cafés, bakeries, bars and grocery stores on Nov. 7.

Hong Tai Supermarket at 2555 Victoria Park Avenue received a conditional pass with five major infractions:

• Fail to ensure food handler in food premise washes hands as necessary to prevent contamination of food

• Fail to protect food from contamination or adulteration

• Fail to provide handwashing stations with adequate supplies (hot and cold water)

• Maintain potentially hazardous foods at internal temperature between 4 C and 60 C

• Use food equipment not in good repair

Union Social Eatery at 21 St. Clair Avenue West received a conditional pass with two major infractions:

• Fail to protect against harbouring of pests

• Fail to remove wastes when necessary to maintain sanitary condition

A conditional pass is issued when at least one infraction presents a significant health risk, and a closure is ordered when at least one infraction presents an immediate health hazard. Both outcomes trigger an additional inspection within 48 hours. Failure to comply with Toronto’s DineSafe program can result in fines, court summons and other enforcement action.
