Scb11980 1st Gear January 7, 2012 Share January 7, 2012 Eight dirty reasons he's resorted to takeaways 5 Jan 2012 Straits Times AS A frequent patron of coffee shops and hawker centres, I have gradually resorted to takeaways rather than eating-in because of the increasing prevalence of these unhygienic conditions: Crockery and cutlery are washed with only plain water and are often oily when used to serve food. Cups are dipped once in soapy water and then plain water, and taken out ready to be used again. Sweaty sellers with sleeveless shirts bending their bodies over food when cooking or serving. Washing of dishes on dirty floors near toilets. Coffee shop toilets are filthy and cannot possibly provide food stall workers with hygienic conditions. Cutlery is placed directly on trays that are wiped with cloth used for cleaning dirty tables. Servers holding the eating part of chopsticks or other cutlery with the same bare hands that hold table cleaning cloth or dirty dishes. The same person who handles cash transactions, handles food as well - with his bare hands. Can the relevant authorities consider prescribing and enforcing higher standards of food stall hygiene so that eating out does not feel like a public health risk?

Csnewbie 1st Gear January 7, 2012 Share January 7, 2012 This is the result of over-population,as derived fr FT/FW imports. These bizs no longer worry about surviving. I just met with a bo chup HP retailer who was discourteous & not worried about getting my purchase. Result of over-demand. A series of measures need to protect consumers.Their dignity,humanity. No counter measure is ever devised. Hence i say our Govt is incomplete & incompetent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
