Chapter 133 Food is the key to travel
If you go back 30 years, it would be a decent thing for passengers traveling by train to have a serious meal in the dining car.

Throughout the history of changes in catering on passenger trains, some older passengers miss the dining cars of the 70s and 80s the most. At that time, due to the lack of supplies, food that could not be eaten at home could be eaten on the train without food stamps. Under the conditions, the dining car meal tastes delicious, every dish is classic and delicious, and the price is also worth the price. It is still fresh in the memory of travelers who often traveled on business at that time.

The times are different now. In addition to dining in the dining car, passengers on the bus have more choices: instant foods such as bread, instant noodles, and ham sausage, as well as convenience foods such as tea eggs, boiled corn, and chicken feet. , Let the dining car also see the coming of competition.

In order to improve the service quality of the dining car and make the satisfaction of passengers go from the tip of the tongue to the tip of the heart, the K18 dining car service has introduced table setting, napkin folding, flower arrangement, etc.The driver of the dining car will design an artistic table for the dining car every time the train departs, so that the passengers can satisfy both their mouths and eyes, and attract passengers to take pictures frequently while dining.

Nowadays, trains have entered the era of high-speed rail, and ordering meals on high-speed rail through the mobile Internet has gradually become the latest choice for many passengers.Passengers on the high-speed rail can not only book various set meals on the train, but also order food online through mobile phones, and enjoy special delicacies from various places along the way.In 2016, EMUs across the country launched a series of "China Railway Catering" products, including more than 400 varieties of Goubuli buns, Wuhan hot dry noodles, and Mongolian pies, enriching the diet of passengers.

The speed of the railway continues to increase, the quality of life of the people continues to improve, and the taste of the tongue on the dining car also improves accordingly.From the tip of your tongue, you can feel the changes in China’s railways over the years. Not only has the speed increased, but the quality of railway services has also continued to improve. I believe that China’s railway dining cars will be smarter and more delicious in the future.

The food operated by the dining car of ordinary-speed passenger trains is the dishes and food processed and cooked by the dining car, which are directly sold to passengers. At the same time, the dining car also provides consumption places, eating utensils and various related services for passengers. , the three functions of sales and service, in addition to self-made products, dishes and other food and beverages, also sell some commodities, such as tobacco and wine, tea, fruit, candy, pastries and the like.

The personnel of the dining car were directly managed by the dining camp department before, but now they are under the unified management of the fleet and train teams.

The dining car is one of the key types of trains. The management of the spare parts of the dining car is a relatively important task in the management of the dining car. , The epidemic prevention stations of each bureau group company (now all belong to the health supervision office of the labor and health department of each bureau group company) will regularly and irregularly check the various hygiene tasks of the dining car, and evaluate and score.

Every time when the team boards the car, Liu Qun will come to the dining car to check the location and other conditions after finishing the work of the office seats.

First of all, Liu Qun will check the storage of tableware. The storage of tableware on the train must be handled by a special person, usually the captain of the dining car.Store according to different product names and classifications. The tableware used by foreign guests and ethnic minorities should be kept separately, and must be placed in a fixed place. When shifting shifts, they should be counted and handed over carefully. For example, halal tableware mainly includes cutting boards, plates, and bowls. , frying ladle, hand spoon, halal knives, salad oil, etc.It must be placed in a dedicated halal cabinet, and the cutting board must have a cover and must be distinguished from other tableware and utensils.The restaurant has halal seats, and the table number of the K-type car is No. 7. There is a halal seat sign on the table, and special cooking and tableware are provided to provide special services for passengers who need halal meals.

Glass and ceramic tableware should be placed separately and buckled on the partition of the cabinet, and because of the shaking of the train, white cloth must be placed on the partition to avoid slipping, and it must not be stacked too high.When using it, handle it with care and avoid collisions. When using it in winter, you should warm up the glass and ceramics first to avoid bursting. Ceramics with residues that cannot be washed should not be used any longer.

The bowls for washing vegetables and holding ingredients should be divided into raw and cooked, and marked on the outside. They must be placed separately and placed in the basin storage place next to the sink.

Cooking utensils include hand spoons, colanders, strainers, meat forks, etc., and are placed in the storage place for cooking utensils opposite the stove.Those small pots, medium pots, and buckets are placed on the brackets on the rice steamer.

The steamer is placed in the steamer, and the amphora and frying spoon are placed on the shelf under the rice washing pool.The lettuce pier is placed on the workbench opposite the rice steamer; the cooked vegetable pier is placed on the workbench above the refrigerator, both of which must have clear signs of "raw and cooked".

Metal tableware should be stored in a dry place, free from water and moisture, and if it is not used for a long time or stored for a long time, it should be oiled or sprinkled with talcum powder to prevent rust.The most important thing is that the knives cannot be placed in an obvious place. This is for safety reasons. If there are mentally disturbed, emotional and malicious passengers rushing into the kitchen to look for knives, they cannot be found.

It should be concealed on the fixed knife rack behind the kitchen door of the restaurant.This regulation stems from the fact that in the dining car of a T train in 2010, a man suddenly lost his mind, ran into the back kitchen of the dining car, chopped a passenger with a kitchen knife, and then put the knife on his neck and said that someone was going to kill him. The railway police responded quickly and subdued him.Later, the Ministry of Railways at that time stipulated that kitchen knives, shovels and other items in the dining car should be hidden.

In order to avoid hidden dangers of food hygiene and safety, it is strictly required that all tableware must be thoroughly washed and disinfected after use, and then they can be classified and stored in a fixed place to facilitate the next use and avoid pollution and rust.

And the dining table is more exquisite, vase, four-flavored rack (that is, salt, pepper, monosodium glutamate, chicken essence four seasonings, four small bottles are assembled together with a stainless steel rack for easy access by passengers), toothpick cup, The ashtrays are displayed on the dining table and placed in a uniform position. Since smoking is prohibited in the car, the ashtrays are mainly used to hold small pieces of garbage.

The sales carts should not be left anywhere, they should be stored in the bar opposite the storage room, and the fast food delivery carts should be placed on the side of the small corridor at the end of the dining cart and must be stored side by side. The braking devices of these two carts are also It is easy for the inspection team to get on the train for inspection. Due to the shaking of the train, the brakes of the trolley are required to be effective, and the front end of the trolley has anti-collision rubber strips, which must be in good condition and effective.

Catering staff must pull the brakes in place when selling items to passengers, so that the trolley can be fixed in place, otherwise the train brakes or suddenly starts, which may cause personal injury to passengers.
