Restaurant & Food Service
Restaurant cleaning happens after close and is inspected before open, so the checklist has to survive a tired crew and a health inspector. It separates front of house from the kitchen, lists the degreasing items that only a kitchen has, and ends with the restrooms, which are what guests remember.
Prints on one or two pages, tick boxes included.
