Above is the picture of a clean kitchen that belongs to one of the restaurants in the West. In the above picture, you can see a clean kitchen environment where the workers are preparing food. Food prepared this way are certainly more appetizing. This is how a kitchen should look like. Let us compare the photo above with the ones below. Below are photos of yarl restaurant's open air kitchen where foods are prepared. Look at these pictures carefully. A picture speaks a thousand words. Would you like to eat foods prepared this way? Is this our ideal Malaysian kitchen? Would you mind paying so much for foods prepared under such circumstances? Restaurant foods are not cheap nowadays. Perhaps Malaysians don't mind eating dirty foods. Is yarl restaurant the only restaurant in Malaysia that makes use of rubbish dumps as its open air kitchen? Perhaps this is what makes it so special!

The photo below is taken from the Facebook "Sampah Tidak Dikutip". If you read carefully what is written on this Facebook, you would realize that this heap of rubbish was just opposite yarl restaurant. Although this heap of rubbish is already cleared now, the flat dwellers still dump rubbish there from time to time since this is the flat's rubbish dump. What is really ridiculous is yarl restaurant also uses this rubbish dump as their second open air kitchen when they have a lot of food to prepare. Why does yarl restaurant need so many open air kitchens? Is it because their kitchen is so small that they have to make use of the rubbish dumps around as their kitchen?
What is even worse is there are many large garbage bins near yarl restaurant. (Look at the photo below. The arrow in this photo is pointing at yarl restaurant's open air kitchen). What do we normally find in the garbage bins? Please take note that when the Alam Flora workers empty the bins, they do not wash them and there are many decaying leftovers sticking to the bins for goodness knows how long. (What you see here are garbage bins that have just been emptied but of course these garbage bins can overflow from time to time). Results from the study by researchers at one of the world's leading waste management centres showed that garbage bins could be a breeding ground for a host of bacteria associated with some of the most devastating stomach bugs including salmonella, e.coli, legionella, clostridium and deadly listeria. The truth is there are many garbage bins near yarl restaurant and the workers of this restaurant like to prepare food outside the kitchen (probably because the kitchen is too small to accommodate the table that they use to prepare food). Just imagine what will happen when foods are prepared on the same lane where the garbage bins are and that these garbage bins are near to yarl restaurant! (These garbage bins are located on the left of yarl restaurant. There are also some large garbage bins filled with garbage on the right of yarl restaurant. I haven't taken the photos yet).
