A complaint was called in to our department regarding a customer observing employees smoking cigarettes out front then immediately enter kitchen and being food prep without washing hands.
Made pic aware of complaint. Discussed proper hand washing.

I will be back within 10 days to verify all priority item violations have been corrected.
A warning letter will be requested for repeat violations. Will send applicable food safety fact sheets and discuss a food safety plan.
