When it comes to eating out, cleanliness of the restaurant is very important. This builds the foundation of trust between the restaurant and its customers. But what happens when this trust is broken? A video recently shared on Instagram has raised concerns about poor food storage practices at a popular restaurant in Jaipur. The footage, shared by a content creator, claims to show food inspection at Up & Up The Musical Terrace restaurant, where vegetarian and meat dishes were placed next to each other.

In the video, the content creator claims that a Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) officer can be heard questioning the storage practices in the kitchen of the restaurant. He inspects the gravy and asks, “How many days is this in the freezer? That’s a worrying situation.”
He further mentions that raw meat was stored along with vegetarian foods. The officer says,It cannot be a big player with the trust of the general public. [There cannot be a bigger violation of the faith of the general public than this],
RAS officials also took a look at the cheese stored in dirty water and claimed that the entire product was “smelling”.
The note attached with the video reads, “Food safety officials Rajasthan inspected Up & Up, Musical Terrace and found major food and safety violations. Watch the reel to watch the video. Share it with your friends to raise awareness !”

The video sparked outrage among internet users who shared their opinions in the comments section.
One user said, “Why can’t we have an open-camera kitchen to see how our food is being prepared?”
Another said: “Wow!!! We can’t even imagine what goes on behind the scenes!! Disgusting!! They should definitely shut down restaurants like this.”
Someone else commented, “We know all this is happening around us but seeing it is something else altogether. It motivates me even more to cook at home every day.”
“They should take strict action against him,” one comment said.
