Additional Comments

Permit posted and good through 9/30/22.
VDH QR code sign telling customers they can ask to see most recent inspection posted at Point of Sale.
Wife received training on HACCP process at Hissho in Charlotte - She trained Brang.
FYI, saw sesame seeds in back spice area - Will be added to list of common allergens in 2023 - Will share information when we receive.
Note that you already have an allergen warning at point of sale.
Parasite destruction letters on computer dated 5/22.
Did note condensation on floor outside walk-in and discussed with Pedro. Will discuss with Todd who manages the Commissary kitchen (email sent to Todd 7/15; states a maintenance work order has been put in).
Discussed vacuum packed salmon and tuna in walk-in that was thawed - Put in last night. Could be an issue for botulism if kept in packaging too long after thawing. Would recommend slashing packaging with clean knife or scissors prior to thawing as best practice.
Owners thermometer checked versus mine on reheat noodles/cook cabbage and within 1F.
Shrimp cooked in same oil/fryer as chicken wings. Owner understands this is allergen concern and how to discuss with customers. Allergen warning posted at point of sale.
Discussed training Aiden received on Employee Health Policy. Knew pertinent parts. Would still recommend documenting training with signed "Company Illness Reporting Agreement".
Space for "Verified by" at bottom of HACCP record form. Is this done by someone? Part of HACCP process to verify process. Could be your wife, periodically.
7/15/22 - Sent email to Franchise Owner that variance should be posted with permit and to contact me if they had any questions.
