Reflection ( Isaac loke)

After reading through the post made by my friends, I feel that I have a more in depth knowledge about the kitchen and personal hygiene and also the reason for doing it. I also feel that in the future I can equip myself with more knowledge so as to serve not only good food to the customer but also clean food that would not harm their body because of my carelessness or lack of knowledge. I am now confident in preparing food that are up to the strict hygiene standards of Singapore and not let my friends, instructor and lecturers down after all those things they taught me. I feel that everyone should have at least a basic idea of this hygiene practices as it will only benefit them in the near future.

Disagreement
Rishi- I personally disagree with rishi when he said and I quote "Cleaning the tables in the kitchen is a good cleanliness practices because it does not give a messy look to the kitchen. " not having the messy look is not the primary reason on why I decided to clean the table, it was as I mentioned in the post to prevent any cross contamination to the food and ingredients as there are no different tables to spate cooked food or raw food. We use the same table for both of them, so the chances of cross contamination is very high in this case

Agreements- I agree with what Hui Huang said and I quote "Cleaning the table is another cleanliness practices that we have to practice.After using a work station for cutting/cooking purposes,it is essential to clean up so that the next person who use the work station to cut his/her food will not get the food contaminated." this is the same thing that I have said to explain why I disagreed with Rishi's statement/comment on my post.

In conclusion personal and kitchen hygiene is of absolute importance when working in a kitchen and it is what every person working in the kitchen or have in contact with or near food should know and practice
