Excuse Me, Theres a Fly In My Soup – No Really
Everybody knows the “waiter, there’s a fly in my soup” jokes. One young diner, Andrea Svensson from Gothenburg, Sweden, didn’t see the funny side when she was served a French Onion soup with a half-dead fly swimming in the bowl. The young lady was out for a romantic dinner with her fiancé but the evening took a sour turn when she actually found a dead fly floating in her $30 starter. “It was horrible,” said Miss Svensson, 27, “I was so close to putting the disgusting thing in my mouth before my boyfriend spotted it.” The diners, understandably not happy, delivered the cliched line to the nearest waiter. To make matters worse, the waiter who came to see them actually took it as a joke and walked away, grinning knowingly! “It may seem funny, but we weren’t impressed.” said boyfriend David. “We expect better standards of hygiene from a restaurant this expensive. To be honest I just got more annoyed when he laughed it off as a joke.” The couple eventually had to call the restaurant manager, who saw the fly and immediately withdrew the dish, offering them a free meal. This offer was hurriedly refused by the pair, who were by this stage not feeling so hungry any more and decided to leave.
Ignoring the jokes, this is a hygiene situation that any restaurant owner knows should be taken seriously. The hot summer weather naturally attracts insects, especially in a food preparation area, and installing a low cost electric fly killer is an absolute must in any commercial kitchen. But this place, and many others no doubt, didn’t have one, since Swedish weather barely gets very hot. “It’s the first time it has happened, but we know we must do something about it,” commented the head chef. “We do take hygiene very seriously in our kitchens, and actually have an air filter already to trap airborne viruses, as well as air conditioners throughout the restaurant.” Let’s hope other restaurants learn the lesson from this. Just one of these fly in soup incidents is enough to ruin a reputation. Even worse than the damage to reputation is the prospect of a visit from the dreaded health inspector, which can in extreme cases get the business temporarily closed down.
