Cadbury Kitchen Get Five Stars From EHO

March 9, 2009 - PRLog -- Kitchens at the region’s premier hotel have been given the highest accolade in terms of cleanliness following the latest Environmental Health Officer (EHO) visit.

Awarded five stars for ‘Kitchen Cleanliness’, Cadbury House Hotel Health Club & Spa is now amongst the top 2% of catering establishments in the UK. It means guests at the four-star hotel and two-rosette rated restaurant can enjoy their visit safe in the knowledge that their stay is of the highest order.

Mark Hands, group general manager said: “We strive to maintain the highest standards at all times and this vindicates our strict policy to ensure our kitchens are kept spotlessly clean at all times. The kitchen staff deserve a huge pat on the back and should be extremely proud of themselves. This doesn’t mean we can rest on our achievements and will make sure we maintain such high standards.”

During the visit the EHO checks a number of different areas including food delivery and storage, refrigeration, food preparation, cooking, employees and kitchen hygiene, giving an overall score.

Questions asked includes are food deliveries made by suppliers at the proper temperatures?; Is food prepared and chilled/frozen on site, labeled and dated?; Do staff prepare raw and cooked food separately, and wash their hands in between?; Is all food equipment properly washed, rinsed, and stored after use?

Richard Wilcox executive chef and procurement manager added: “We have a duty of care for our customers and not surprisingly restaurants occupy a special place in health and safety matters.

“Not only do the staff need to work and be protected according to health and safety regulations, but the work we do has an immediate bearing on the health and safety of our customers. Unless we operate to the highest standards, we wouldn’t be able to serve the outstanding food that’s become synonymous with Cadbury House.”
