The Biryani Walla/Chicha’s at 2300 Lawrence Avenue East received a conditional pass with four major infractions:

  • Fail to ensure equipment surface cleaned as necessary

  • Fail to provide adequate refrigerated space for food storage

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

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.
