A THAI restaurant has been told that it must improve its food safety after being visited by food hygiene inspectors.
Jintana Thai Restaurant, on Lake Road in Bowness, has been given a score of one out of a possible five by South Lakeland District Council inspectors after they visited on May 24.
The restaurant, which has been open since 2004, was graded as "improvement necessary" in the area of hygienic food handling, including preparation, cooking, re-heating, cooling, and storage.
The cleanliness and condition of the facilities and building to enable good food hygiene was labelled "good".
However, in the management of food safety - inspecting the "system or checks in place to ensure that food sold or served is safe to eat, evidence that staff know about food safety, and the food safety officer has confidence that standards will be maintained in the future", it was graded as "major improvement necessary".
