The kitchen is expected to be the cleanest premises in the restaurant because its cleanness impacts directly the quality of the food served. Restaurant personnel that have access to the kitchen should keep to certain rules, such as washing hands regularly or putting a cap when entering kitchen, for example. However, ensuring that restaurant kitchen is properly cleaned is especially important because if a cook has clean hands, but cooks the food in dirty utensils or on a dirty table, it is still completely unacceptable and should be reformed. There are several steps which should be followed daily, weekly, and monthly in order to keep restaurant kitchen clean and for it to correspond to all the sanitary requirements.
