Product Description
From the time food enters a kitchen to the time it is served to a customer, a restau-rant or foodservice operation is responsible for purchasing, receiving, storing, pre-paring, handling, and serving food in a safe manner. By paying close attention to the proper procedures for food storage and preparation, a restaurateur can ensure that his/her customers are served food that will not make them sick.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book and very helpful, June 9, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Servsafe Coursebook (With Exam Answer Sheet) (Paperback)

This book helped me a tremendous amount getting through the national certifation exam. Every three years we have to up date our certifation in California. I also purchased the Study Guide for the National Servsafe Exam: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations ISBN 0971999678 which is also on amazon. This book covers all levels of food safety. I highly recommend it, especially if it's your first time taking the course or exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very detailed and great pictures, June 9, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Servsafe Coursebook (Paperback)

I live in Washington State where it's required to be certified in sanitation before applying for a job. I bought this book and also bought the Study Guide for the National Servsafe Exam: Key Reviews Questions and Answers with Explanations (ISBN: 0971999678) and it helped me pass the course and the national certification test. This study guide covers all necessary information you need to know to work in a restaurant or any other type of food service job.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent book and very informative, June 9, 2003

By A Customer

This book helped me a lot in culinary school, but there were no answers to the questions given at the end of each chapter. I purchased the Study Guide for the National Servsafe Exam: Key Review and Answers with Explanations (ISBN: 0971999678) also on amazon.com, and was able to get through my course easily and passed the national certification test. This study guide will help many students pass their sanitation course with a high grade and also pass the certification test.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this one if you are currently enrolled in a class!
This is the out of print edition and doesn't contain the 2001 updates that most schools will test you on.
