Namyangju City Selects 100 'Namyangju Safe Restaurants'

[Asia Economy Reporter La Young-cheol] Namyangju City in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 31st that it has identified 100 restaurants safe from 'COVID-19' and designated them as 'Namyangju Safe Restaurants.'

According to the city, a 'Safe Restaurant' is a certification system established to increase awareness of quarantine and hygiene amid the severe avoidance of dining out due to the spread of COVID-19, and to establish a safe food culture so that citizens can use restaurants with peace of mind.

The designation criteria for Safe Restaurants include five items: ▲employees wearing masks, ▲provision of hand sanitizer and regular disinfection and ventilation, ▲active practice of serving food individually (providing ladles for serving soup, individual plates, etc.), ▲hygienic management of utensils (individual packaging, pre-provision of personal utensils, etc.), and ▲not reusing leftover food.

Businesses wishing to be designated as Safe Restaurants submit an application form, and after on-site inspection and evaluation procedures, those meeting the qualification criteria are designated as Safe Restaurants.

Since last year, the city has been identifying businesses that strictly follow quarantine rules and managing them as 'Namyangju Safe Restaurants,' providing designated restaurants with 'Namyangju Safe Restaurant' signboards.
