A popular restaurant and cocktail bar has been told to make ‘major improvements’ to ensure the food it serves is safe to eat. Otium restaurant in Weston-super-Mare has been issued with a worst possible score following an inspection by North Somerset Council's environmental health teams last month.
Officers carried out the inspection after the authority received a complaint about the premises. Inspectors said major improvement was needed to the restaurant’s food safety processes to ensure food sold at the Carlton Street venue was safe to eat, reports Somerset Live.
Inspectors said that systems and checks needed to be put in place to evidence that staff know about food safety and that standards would be maintained in the future. Restaurant bosses were also told that major improvements were also needed to the hygienic handling of food preparation, its cooking, re-heating, cooling and storage.
