Quite a long time ago, I worked at a pizza place in a regional chain.  &lt;i&gt;That&lt;/i&gt; location was kept quite clean, as were most of them.  However, sometimes they&amp;#x27;d give us the chance to pick up a shift at another location if they couldn&amp;#x27;t arrange one of their own employees on that day (usually because they called in sick).  One such location was absolutely &lt;i&gt;filthy&lt;/i&gt;.  That location was since closed (grapevine says the chain fired the GM and couldn&amp;#x27;t find anyone to replace them).&lt;p&gt;What helps is that there are signs of this sort of thing, if you know what to look for.  E.g you should prefer places where you can see into the kitchen (which is most of them these days), places where the customer service workers tuck in their shirts, and places that keep their bathrooms and parking lots clean.  Places where police and EMS folks eat &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; tend to be good bets (they usually also get a discount, but lots of places offer such discounts).</text><parent_chain><item><author>krageon</author><text>&amp;gt; Cooks with experience in commercial kitchens never want to eat at a restaurant again.&lt;p&gt;Having done such work, this is absolutely untrue.

Producing stuff sold in stores means super-stringent checks where for example you have to swap your clothes before entering and exiting the area where you prepare the foodstuff. Now school kitchens on the other hand... sure they are checked but not at all with the same strictness it seems.</text><parent_chain><item><author>krageon</author><text>&amp;gt; Cooks with experience in commercial kitchens never want to eat at a restaurant again.&lt;p&gt;Having done such work, this is absolutely untrue.
