Just like restaurants, pubs, and cafes, food safety inspectors regularly visit local nurseries, schools, and residential care homes across the city to ensure meals are prepared to the highest standard for children and vulnerable residents.
Carried out by the Food Standards Agency, the inspector rates kitchens based on food handling, the condition of the premises and management of food safety, with 5 being very good and 0 requiring immediate action.
