Visakhapatnam: The food safety department on Monday inspected a group of hotels and restaurants in response to complaints lodged by consumers.
According to GAB Nandaji, assistant food controller, the inspections were conducted at New Tandoori-Inn, Sri Sai Ram Parlour and Satyam restaurants at Diamond Park near RTC Complex in the city.
The food safety team issued instructions to scrupulously follow Covid-19 safety measures in the preparation of food, service, maintenance of physical distance, sanitation and registration of customers. Workers involved in preparation of food and servers must undergo regular health check ups, the team said.
The instructions also called for immediate rectification of unhygenic conditions in the kitchen and dining area, including maintenance of drainage, cleaning walls, the roof, utensils and crockery. Premises must be regularly disinfected, a release said.
“We also found pre-cooked food in the refregirators and stale food. We collected samples and sent them for analysis,” Nandaji said, adding that action would be taken based on the reports of the samples.
