I worked with many Indians during seven years cooking in commercial kitchens, I didn't find them demanding or observe any negligence regarding hygene, if anything they were overly fussy about it. However....
They are lazy, they work to rule all of the time, they're the first out the door at the end of the service and they become sullen when asked to pitch in and help with something which isn't really their job.
Example, I was working in the patisserie section with the Indian pastry chef for a couple of months, one day both dishwashers didn't turn up so the head chef put us on dishes until the dessert orders started to come in. Jagdish, the pastry chef wouldn't speak to anyone for the rest of the service and called in sick for a week, a few weeks later he cut his finger and took two weeks off, he got the sack and I got his job.

Speaking of racists....

Bazz and Hasbeen would fit in well with those relatives you speak of NathonJ.

Jay of Melbourne, surely you have met lazy people of all walks of life in your job?
Would that pastry chef be lazy because he is Indian, or just because he has a poor work ethic like many others?

If another Caucasian chef was deemed useless, slow or lazy in the kitchen, would everyone then say "Ah well now, that Caucasian guy is just like the rest of them".?
If not, why not?

Ah! Hasbeen sahib,

You should be mixing with the Catholic and other Christians of the sub-Continent.
They are the Indian peoples who are using the toilet paper, or the corn husks depending upon their social standing monetary wise.
In the India of the south there are being the clean toilets and the Konkan Railway is of note for the high cleanliness of the public facilities at the stations of which it is the provider.

Deli bellie is indeed a scourge, but can be avoided by the very Christian and other upper class peoples habit of boiling the drink water always, and never eating the citrus fruits or water melons except from the vendor of excellent character who is guaranteeing that the fruits of his retailing are not pumpted to freshness by the injection of water under pressure.

For much more on the toilets of India see http://www.sulabhtoiletmuseum.org/

The Sulabh organization are providing the clean toilets and the showering to wash facilities in many parts of India and they are of a standard international.

It should be added that food cooked by the roadside stall holder is hygenic always and one may watch the cooking thereof.

Restaurants are another matter and sadly India does not possess the excellent organizations of Government that are available in the Cities of Australia for the catching of the unhygenic.

"The operators of one of Melbourne's best-known Chinese restaurants, the Red Emperor in Southbank, have pleaded guilty to multiple charges after it was found last year infested with cockroaches, mouse droppings and fruit flies.
The state of the fine dining venue with a 20-year reputation for hosting international guests and conferences was so bad that owner Lihua Gao voluntarily shut its doors the day before City of Melbourne health inspectors ordered it closed because it posed an immediate risk to the public"

Thanks for that info Is Mise, but I doubt Hasbeen and Bazz would let the truth get in the way of a good racist rant.
Ignorance is obviously bliss for them.
