為什麼別點這３道菜？

報導，貝斯指出，菜單上沒標明用什麼當季食材的「主廚特餐」最好別點，因為在內行人看來，那通常代表：「這些食材快壞了，我們得趕快出清。」料理可能會以醬料掩蓋食材味道，並以好看的擺盤分散注意力，但其實消費者是以高價吞下昨日的剩菜。
接著是貝類海鮮，尤其是離海邊很遠的餐廳所銷售的菜式。貝斯表示，除非知道餐廳每日有新鮮進貨、冷藏設備也乾淨無菌，否則根本是在用肚子賭命。她告誡：「海鮮如果保存或處理不當，一盤看起來高級的海鮮拼盤，恐變成食物中毒炸彈。」
@juliabesz.bloommoneyingWe were sat over a late-night cuppa after his shift when he said it: “There are a few things you should never order in any restaurant.” Not his, not a chain, not even the posh ones. I laughed, thinking it was some insider joke — but his face didn’t budge. He wasn’t being dramatic, he was being de@d serious. The first on his list? “Specials” that aren’t tied to a clear seasonal ingredient. Sounds harmless, but in the trade, that often means “stuff we need to shift before it goes off.” The sauce masks the age, the garnish distracts you — and by the time you’ve finished, you’ve basically paid top dollar for yesterday’s leftovers. Then there’s shellfish in places nowhere near the coast. Unless you know they’ve got daily deliveries and spotless storage, you’re gambling with your gut. “Most punters don’t realise,” he said, “but the wrong handling turns a fancy seafood platter into a food poisoпing time bomb.” He also warned me about ice in drinks at certain bars. “If the ice machine isn’t cleaned properly — and in busy spots, it often isn’t — you’re basically sipping on a chilled petri dish.” Suddenly, that summer cocktail didn’t feel so Instagrammable. And the shocker? Chicken dishes in buffets or all-you-can-eats. It’s the perfect breeding ground for bacteria if temps aren’t bang-on, and trust me — in high-volume places, they’re not checking every tray like they should. “You won’t see it,” he said, “but you’ll feel it 12 hours later.” Here’s the quick takeaway for peace of mind: next time you eat out, ask yourself one question — how quickly is this moving off the kitchen pass? If the answer’s “not very,” leave it on the menu. You’ll save yourself a fortune in wasted meals… and maybe a night hugging the loo.

貝斯指出，朋友也提醒她小心酒吧飲料裡的冰塊。因為在熱門的餐廳裡，冰塊機通常沒有好好清潔，顧客喝下的基本上就是冰鎮的培養皿。但最讓貝斯震驚的是，自助餐或吃到飽的雞肉料理也很危險。貼文提及，這些雞肉是細菌的溫床，只要溫度沒控制好，問題就來了。
貝斯總結，下次選擇外食時，最好觀察餐廳廚房是否常出某類料理。如果發現沒什麼人點，那就不要選了。如此一來，不只可省下一筆冤枉錢，還能避免半夜狂奔廁所的命運。
