???? Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Did i miss it or did *that place*, you know, the one that doesn't like to put itself up for any public scrutiny on the forum, somehow get off having to be rated for hygeine too?

StraferJack Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I think people have posted links to this site before - certainly some heated (I know, right!?) debate has taken place around what constitutes hygenicTasty and great food can and often is prepared in pretty ropey conditionsAppalling bland and dull food is often dished up by box-ticking merchantsNow I don?t really want rats looking over the chef?s shoulder as he or she cooks the food he or she has just rescued from their lair ? but given the choice of tasty good food from potentially queasy kitchen surroundings over dull food which is all but guaranteed to be safe I?m always going to go with the former Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/28377-food-standards-agency-se22/#findComment-610410 Share on other sites More sharing options...

annabel42 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Two or three years ago I suffered two unpleasant food experiences at one of the places given one of the lowest scores. One of these involved an extremely serious case of food poisoning. Liability for poor hygiene was admitted. I received an apology and an offer of free meals.The fact that two or three years on the place in question has been awarded a low score sends out a message.From this perspective, I think the scores are useful.

bels123 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Looks as though the curry houses have the most improvements to make. Will be thinking again about where I get my takeaway, what a shame.

Lowlander Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 If they're allowed to stay open I'll eat there (as long as the food is good). Food Inspectors can be a bit challenging...Honestly, I'm more concerned about the source of the ingredients. Some of the meat used in the catering industry is well dodgy. Do the food inspectors look at this?You've got more chance of being poisoned at home or in a friend's house anyway.

dbboy Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Had a scan through the list today, some pf peoples "favourite" eating and driking establishments have some VERY low scores. I strogly suggest having a look at the list before you sample the food on offer down LL and on North Cross Road. The scores may put you off eating in certain establishments. Personally I'd like to see all businesses who sell/and serve food and drink to have to display their current rating in the front window so people can instantly know what the score awarded was by the local authority and make a judgement based on this information.

bigdavid Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 While spending some time in third world countries, my girlfriend and I developed the 5 golden rules for enjoying your meal. Some are probably worth applying here at home.1 - don't look in the kitchen. You probably don't want to know and you cannot unsee what you have seen.2 - if you order something sealed (dumpling, samosa, etc) don't look inside it. It's sealed for a reason.3 - never order from a third party country. If you are in Nepal, don't order the Lasagne.4 - never deviate from the menu. "Have you got any seafood?" in a place where it isn't on the menu will challenge the chef will always lead to trouble.5 - if what you get served is close enough to what you order, or to be honest just looks edible, accept it quietly. Sending things back makes for hurried changes and disgruntled staff. Both can result in a dose of the Tijuana 2-step.

Otta Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I eat donner kebabs, and fully accept that I have no business worrying about the state of the place that serves it, being as it couldn't get any filthier.
