Abstract

This department is primarily concerned with the storage, maintenance, cleanliness and issue of cutlery, crockery, hollowware, chinaware and glassware to the restaurants and kitchens. It is responsible for the cleanliness of kitchens and the washing of pots and pans. It procures, installs and services gas connections and coal supply for cooking. The department will ideally have a large store for kitchen and service equipment; dishwashers and pot washing section. Many hotels may give the responsibility of the staff cafeteria to the kitchen stewarding. In such cases the stewarding would have their own brigade of cooks to prepare staff meals. Kitchen Stewarding is also responsible for pest control activity of a kitchen.
