In order to promote the inheritance and development of China's catering culture, the state has formulated corresponding protection systems in this respect, such as issuing a series of recommended lists of famous Chinese snacks, top ten noodles in China and traditional Chinese cakes, which have enhanced the appreciation and traditional flavor of Chinese catering culture. Food safety is the most important issue in the catering industry. In order to ensure the hygiene and safety of the catering industry, the state has issued relevant laws and regulations on food production, processing, sales and service.

characteristics of catering service

catering service can only be used once and enjoyed on the spot, which means that the service can only be carried out after the guests enter the restaurant, and the service will naturally terminate when the guests leave the restaurant. Catering industry is intangible in service utility, which is different from tangible products such as fruits and vegetables. Its quality can be judged by its color, size and shape. Catering service can only be evaluated by the personal feelings of diners after purchasing, consuming and enjoying the service.

On the one hand, the difference of catering services means that catering services are completed by catering department staff through manual labor, and each staff member provides different catering services for guests due to their age, gender, personality, quality and educational level. On the other hand, the same waiter will have certain differences in service attitude and service mode on different occasions, at different times, or in the face of different guests.
