    Hi- Where is the health inspector? I am glad I never eat at that chain, and no I am not going to say which one it is.

    I'm going to bet it isn't the chain's issue but that particular store.

    Somehow I'm thinking a real manager wasn't there that day. Although I didn't read a lot of the posts to see if the imgur OP explains anything in detail.

    I guarantee that this has happened at least once at restaurants that we have all patronized, as a result of the following:

    1. One of more dishwashers calling in sick or pulling a no show.
    2. Another dishwasher leaving early due to sickness/injury.
    3. A very busy shift, like an Easter Buffet, or a Saturday night. Dishes start piling up. When a server has no more room on the
    racks to stack up the dishes, they start piling up on the floor.

    You'd be surprised how quickly stuff accumulates. The photo with the boxes indicates to me a busy prep shift with nobody free to break down the boxes and take to the dumpster.

    A real chef or manager will roll up their sleves and jump on the dish machine. I've seen a Director of F&B rempove his Armani suit jacket, roll his sleves up, and work alongside the guys until all is clear.

    Everyone is an amateur photographer these days, so many embarrassing photos are making the rounds.

    Besides there being cameras everywhere these days there's places like imgur.com that make it simple to make a point photographically to millions of people.

    Another golden corral story made the rounds today. I assume this is just localized to a single location:

    here's a goog I did just now, July 8 2013, 10:40 CDST using "reddit":

    Nothing is amok though doing a search on 4chan.org .

    If a hive mind happened today and it was way out there there most likely there would have been a 4chan influence too.

    This story contains a MAJOR inaccuracy:

    The most well-known example of poor food handling practices is Diane Sawyer’s 1992 ABC News segment on the supermarket Food Lion, in which cameras caught employees selling meat and fish beyond their expiration dates and even coating them in Clorox to cover up the bad smell.


    The employees doing the dirty deeds at Food Lion were later found to be ABC employees. Food Lion later won damages from ABC for the training costs related to those employees.

    ==================================================

    Back to the topic.

    The quality of Golden Corrals are largely dependent on the local franchisees. The ones that I have dined at in Chicago have consistently been bad. The ones in Cincinnati - operated by Frisch's Restaurants - were surprisingly good.

    ==================================================

    The sad part about the dishroom in question is that I have seen worse.

    Someone no showed or called off. Look at all the empty racks, full trashes, plates not scraped. I've seen some gnarly dish pits, where's the manager in all this? You gotta jump in there, it's part of your job!

    Hi- The one that Pancake gave the link to that showed all the food sitting on top of the dumpster was at a Golden Coral in Florida, and the manager for that place was terminated.

    In March 2012, Frisch's had a deal to sell all of its holdings in Golden Corral to NRD Holdings, which franchises Popeye's, Checkers, and Domino's, among others. However, Golden Corral invoked its right of first refusal and bought the 29 Frisch's-owned restaurants in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia under the same, undisclosed terms for which Frisch's agreed to sell the restaurants to NRD.

    In any event, Frisch's no longer operates the Golden Corral restaurants in Cincinnati.

    Yes, that is correct. Frisch's sold off the business last year. I still say that I would eat at the Cincinnati locations anytime at this point.
