A NUMBER of cafés, pubs, restaurants and takeaways across east Dorset and west Hampshire have been handed new food hygiene ratings recently.
An Indian restaurant in Poole which has been told ‘major improvement is necessary’ and an Italian restaurant with a ‘generally satisfactory rating are included in this week’s round up.
Each week, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) inspects businesses across the country, assessing hygiene and safety, structural compliance and confidence in management.
Across the UK, every food outlet including convenience stores, restaurants, hospitals and care homes are given a hygiene rating.
What each hygiene rating means:
0 - Urgent improvement necessary
1 - Major improvement necessary
2 - Some improvement necessary
3 - Hygiene standards generally satisfactory
4 - Hygiene standards good
5 - Hygiene standards very good
