Seoul Metropolitan Government has introduced a smartphone application that provides users with blacklisted restaurants in the city.
The city government said Friday that it developed the program, “Seoul Safety Foodstuff,” to inform people of recognized and excellent restaurants.
The app is available for smartphones using the Android operating system (OS), and will inform customers of all food processing and preparation at the restaurants including where their ingredients come from.
It also identifies 441 restaurants that are licensed for food safety along with 5,500 that set a “good-example.”
In addition, restaurants that have been subject to punitive actions for unsanitary food will be disclosed.
Currently, Seoul government officials visit restaurants twice a year to check on hygiene, ingredients and food preparation, and issue safety certificates. Also, the city highlights restaurants that present the origin of their ingredients.
“If customers are wondering about the hygiene of restaurants, they want to visit, they can just touch on the application and they are able to get information about them,” said a city official. Those who want to download the program are able to do so from SK Telecom’s mobile T store for free.
The city government will produce a variety of apps in order to secure safety of foods by Nov. 19. Earlier, Seoul City introduced several apps for tourists, such as “Travel Call Taxi,” “Seoul Traffic,” and “I-Tour” that provide travel information.
서울시 스마트폰으로 불량 음식점 알려준다
서울시는 스마트폰 사용자들에게 위생관리를 엉망으로 하는 음식점 명단을 제공하는 애플리케이션을 개발했다.
시는 15일 시민들에게 우량 음식점을 알려주기 위해 이러한 서울의 안전한 먹거리 프로그램을 개발하게 됐다고 말했다.
이 애플리케이션은 안드로이드 시스템 가입자가 이용할 수 있는데 고객들에게 음식 재료의 원산지 등 모든 음식 준비과정에 대해 알려 준다고.
또한, 위생 관리 부실로 식약청으로 부터 행정처분을 받은 음식점을 공개하고 있다.
