raw ingredient walk-ins/walk-in refrigerators


Explanation:
We always called the refrigerators "walk-ins" (for walk-in refrigerator) when I was working in the professional kitchen and I use the term today at the warehouse.

Check out the section in the article referring to Food Equipment and Utensils
