When we eat outside we are in a way giving our health and lives in hands of the person who is serving us. Once in a week is the average of families eating outside and bachelors well they eat out almost every day. Restaurant industry is one of the biggest in terms of customers and profit. We have got so many brands and so many local restaurants serving us, when we go to these restaurants what do we look for? Taste & service, we ignore the most important factor and that is
Food Safety or may be are confident in this context. We have faith that our favorite restaurant will by default deliver quality and hygienic food to us.
This faith is good and restaurants should maintain this trust. Its not actually that big a task they just have to make sure that they are serving everything fresh and by fresh I just dont mean that the dishes should be made fresh, even the raw material used in making the dish should be fresh. Few things that should be kept in mind
Fresh Raw material
Prevent contaminated Food
Proper food storage
Food should be handled, prepared and stored in such a way that prevents food illness. If the food we eat is not proper or hygienic we can suffer from various food diseases. There are proper institutes working to make sure that proper food safety regulations are made and people follow them. Institutes like NIFDS ensure
Food Safety by investigation and research done by their own trained people. Every restaurant should have strict rules in this regard and bodies like ISO make sure that they follow these rules. Timely quality check and revised certification is very important for every restaurant and not only restaurant even companies providing packed food should follow these rules as well after all food is our life and nobody is allowed to play with it.
