Foreign students all know that after going abroad to eat has become a great difficulty, especially when parents are not around, alone to study abroad, at first the picture is fresh, think steak, fries delicious, after half a year, the weight has not said, And when I saw the fries, I muttered to my heart,
Browsing Time line and seeing all kinds of gourmet food in China, those who are greedy for food can only drink water to meet their hunger. In the end, eating is still a big problem.
But I don't know when,
Time line and the major web platforms are slowly gaining popularity in a variety of family takeout.
It's cheap and convenient to buy home-made meals on the Internet platform.
And the business of these people who do private houses is also very popular.
Recently, the Australian government authorities approved a number of unlicensed home kitchens.
Without a license, food safety is difficult to protect the Australian catering industry management department CEO-Juliana Payne to remind consumers: order home-made meals online should think twice!
She says consumers can't be sure-
Whether food produced in this unregulated home kitchen complies with strict food safety and hygiene regulations!
It is understood that Facebook and Gumtree have dozens of advertisements for home-made meals, including curry, lasagna, and so on.
Some of them say they have food safety licenses in their kitchens, but many do not.
Food industry regulations are very strict, local councils manage these food stores and mandatory licensing.
"it's hard to investigate home-made sellers in unlicensed areas, such as the backyard or someone's own home kitchen, on the Internet," Payne said.
"it's hard to know if their food production process, etc., meets all the standards."
Journalist interviewed a restaurant that specialises in takeout.
The store's owner said food health and safety ranged from employee training to obtaining food safety licences, insurance and documents on cleaning and food preservation temperatures.
"of course, we would like to provide delicious food to our customers, but we are also trying to make sure that the food is safe."
'It's unfair to the regular store,' said Payne, where the restaurant, the coffee shop and the owner of the hotel needed a lot of investment when they opened the company,
"A professional restaurant often requires a lot of investment and other efforts," he said.
"but if some people can cook homemade meals at home and can be sold through online platforms, it can lead to unfair competition."
"some people make food directly in the home kitchen for sale, which is sometimes quite dangerous."
Queensland Health Bureau encourages members of the public to:
If you suspect that the restaurant's food is unsafe or that the restaurant does not have a food business license, you can refer to the local council report.
In fact, this is not the first time that government has started "private food". Before that, there had been a "blood case" in the circle of studying abroad.
More than 30 international students were repatriated for operating private dishes in Time line.
And they were hit by the report of the local Chinese restaurant.
This is the tragic story of a living unlicensed business,
But also a bloody evolution into a vicious picture of competition.
So those guys who really want to do business,
Please check the local rules first,
It is only by standards that one can continue his business.
In Australia, according to Food Act 2001 (Food Act 2001) law,
All food sales companies, including home takeout on social app, must notify the local government 14 days prior to operation.
According to Food Act 2001, food Regulations 2002 (food code 2002) and Food Safety Standards (food safety standards,
If you do not inform the local council that the sale of food is illegal and is accompanied by a large amount of fine!
Sellers should be aware of the law requirements related to the transportation of food and ensure that the temperature of the food delivered is in compliance with the regulations; the place where the food is cooked and the vehicle carrying the food must comply with food safety standards; And according to food safety standard 3.2.3 strictly build home take-out kitchen-the family should have a commercial-grade kitchen matching, etc. (the ordinary family kitchen is not possible).
There are five phases to applying for a license: step 1: check
When the municipal government receives the application form, will come to the door to examine the preliminary situation.
Step 2: information
The application will be forwarded to the service for evaluation and may require further review of the plan.
Step 3: decision
After receiving all relevant information, the final decision will be made.
Step 4: notification
If approved, you will need to fill in the food business notice and submit it to the local city government.
Step 5: routine inspection
If approved, the home takeout will be scheduled for routine inspection,
You'll have to pay a regular check-up fee.
State fines vary in Melbourne, where municipal workers say it is 100 percent illegal for private takeout to sell food without a health permit.
Upon discovery, the maximum penalty is a fine of $20500.
If the person involved is a non-domestic citizen, there is also a risk of repatriation.

It's a pity that https://www2.health.vic.gov.au/public-health/food-safety/food-businesses/starting-a-food-business didn't play a good cook.
In fact, people make private dishes overseas,
It can not only make some living expenses for itself, but also provide the local Chinese with the taste of home.
Why not?
As long as all documents are complete and business is done in accordance with local regulations, there is naturally no problem ~
In order to save more than 1000 Australian dollars, their good business, visa to be included in the loss is not worth it.
