No risk factor violations observed today. Good handwash and glove use practices observed. Quat = 400 ppm in 3rd sink (only need 200 ppm to be effective). 5 boxes of frozen chicken, delivered today, held at room temperature to thaw. Chicken is still frozen now but this is an unsafe practice. TCS food should thaw in reach-in refrigerator so part of the chicken doesn't exceed 41 degrees while other parts are still frozen. Adjust ordering schedule to ensure chicken can be thawed in refrigerator. If necessary, you can thaw under <70 degrees running water. Food stored on floor of walk-in freezer needs to be moved onto shelf. Back 1/2 of kitchen is not clean - improve cleaning practices. Burgers are just barely making 155 degrees, minimum temperature to be considered fully cooked.
No violation noted during this evaluation.
