    Places with a zero hygiene rating aren’t necessarily that unsanitary - you can get a zero just for filling in paperwork incorrectly/late, that’s why they’re actually still allowed to be open. It’s the ones with a 1 rating that you really need to watch out for, because they’re really doing the bare minimum.

    • @Joefdgtr
      @Joefdgtr Рік тому +13

      I heard that even without the sufficient paperwork as long as your place is fairly clean, you'll still score say 2 or 3. But the paperwork aspect definitely affects the score independent on the cleanliness.

    Bibimbap is lovely! Bibim = mixed, bap = rice... aka. mixed rice!
    Carrots, spinach, courgette, mushrooms, beef, egg, cucumber... whatever the ingredients are... they vary a lot. It's topped with a spicy red sauce, containing gochujang (Korean spicy chilli pepper paste), which is what you were given in that tiny tub.
    It's a dish that originates from Koreans mixing leftover rice with leftover ingredients (stir-fried vegetables or meat) and sauce - which isn't that spicy once mixed in - so it can be eaten cold or hot.
    The larger tub, as someone pointed out, is miso soup, which is served with their rice dishes, hence the 'sediment'.

    Food hygiene doesnt really have much to do with how nice something is to eat. Chances are that zero rated places are because they couldnt demonstrate process is being followed during inspection, such as labelling food, demonstrating separating cooked and raw foods, etc. Places that serve higher risk foods such as meat and rice also have to meet a high threshold, so it makes sense most of those places sold those foods.
    Places that are just disgusting with rats running around and turds all over the kitchen are just getting shut down on inspection.

    I went up to London the other week (probably the 4th time in my whole life) with a few friends. Went in a burger restaurant (not like a burger chain) cost about £25 each for burger chips and a cocktail. Not too bad for London prices I suppose. Really in helpful in friendly staff and to top it off they put a £10 surcharge on the bill! Never heard of that before. Got them to take it off and they glared at us till we left.😂😂 did that ever happen to you in London Ed? 😁

    The 0 for Mr Whites will litterally be because of that burger, they will serve it like how you would serve steak and have it pink in the middle. The issue is if they do this then they are using mince not made on site and the health inspector deems that as a potential source for bacteria. GBK suffered from this in my town (Bolton) and rather than fight this they just closed down. The reality is, if the mince meat is fresh that they are making the burger with then its fine, you aren't going to get ill eating it.

    Going to places with the lowest customer ratings would make more sense if you're gonna judge purely based on the quality of food. It's not like you're checking out the conditions in the kitchen. Bad food hygiene raring doesn't say much about the quality of food. Greasy spoon cafes look awful but the food often tastes great. Please take this as a suggestion, not a criticism. I really enjoy your videos.
