All businesses should have a cleaning company that ensures compliance with hygiene standards for proper operation. But if cleaning is of special importance in some companies, it is in restaurants. In an establishment where food processing is the main activity, it is essential to maintain high-quality cleanliness. This is required by the regulations and consumers demand this since if a customer finds dirt in his favorite restaurant, there will be a 70% chance that he will not return.
Giving more importance to the restaurant’s food than to its cleanliness is something that no hotelier should allow.
It is normal to prioritize what is urgent and leave other tasks for later, but the cleanliness and order of the premises should not be among them, since they are of vital importance for the restaurant. That is why we recommend outsourcing these tasks, we have already talked about how expensive it is to carry out cleaning tasks with your own staff and how difficult it can be to hire a suitable cleaning company in Sydney, but it requires special attention if we want our business runs smoothly.
When we refer to the cleaning of restaurants in Sydney. We are not only talking about the tables, the floor, or the bathroom. We also talk about the disinfection of areas that cannot be seen, such as warehouses and the kitchen. Because of a matter of food safety and regulations. To avoid food contamination, we must have an impeccable kitchen and clean, dry, and tidy warehouses.
The cleaning company must be in charge of supervising all the correct cleaning and disinfection of the restaurant. This does not mean just cleaning with soap and water restaurant has special needs which require the use of chemicals and specific cleaning machines to cover those needs.
Currently, with the growth of recommendation pages and social networks, customers leave their evaluations on the quality of the food in restaurants, the service, the price, and, of course, also on the cleanliness and order of the same.
But what advice should we follow for proper restaurant cleaning?
We must know is that after each day, we must clean and disinfect all the utensils. Same with the kitchen machinery used in contact with food. But not only that, but also:
- Cutlery and utensils should be easy to wash and disinfect, avoiding wood
- We require thorough cleaning
- The kitchen and places where food preparation is the focal point. Must-have hot and cold water, a liquid and antibacterial soap dispenser, and single-use towels.
- We must sanitize cutlery and crockery using mechanical methods, such as dishwashers that guarantee proper cleaning and disinfection. Water must have at least 80 degrees Celsius temperature for cleaning and disinfection.
- Rubbish bins must be washable and have a tight-fitting lid and pedal drive.
To achieve a correct cleaning in restaurants, we must carry out two steps, cleaning, and disinfection.
By cleaning, we understand the process by which dirt or remains of organic matter are removed somewhere. Disinfection comprises applying a disinfectant product, usually of chemical origin, on a previously cleaned surface. Disinfection is one of the most important phases in cleaning a restaurant since it is the one that destroys the microorganisms that we cannot in the cleaning phase.
