Toronto Public Health issued three conditional passes to restaurants, cafés, bakeries, bars and grocery stores on March 3.

Casa Deluz at 1571 Sandhurst Circle received a conditional pass with one major infraction:

  • Fail to protect food from contamination or adulteration

Darbar Persian Grill at 2015 Avenue Road received a conditional pass with four major infractions:

  • Fail to provide handwashing stations with adequate supplies (hot and cold water)
  • Handwashing stations not conveniently accessible by food handlers
  • Store ice in unsanitary manner
  • Mechanical equipment not maintained to provide sufficient chemical solution rinse

Hotopia Sichuan Cuisine at 25 Spring Garden Avenue received a conditional pass with six major infractions:

  • Fail to ensure food handler in food premise washes hands as necessary to prevent contamination of food
  • Fail to maintain handwashing stations (liquid soap and paper towels)
  • Fail to maintain records of pest control measures taken
  • Fail to protect food from contamination or adulteration
  • Store potentially hazardous foods at internal temperature between 4 C and 60 C
  • Use handwashing station other than for handwashing of employees

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.
