Washing Dishes, Cutlery, Utensils and Tablecloths

• The usual rigorous hygiene methods will be employed for the washing of dishes, glasses, utensils and cutlery – which are all sanitised and disinfected in a dishwasher
• These items will then be dried using specially designed paper towels
• Napkins and fabric tablecloths will be washed in cycles of a minimum of 70°C

Table Layout
