Do you need a food handlers certificate to serve food at a cafe?

Answer 1

In Germany you have to get the paper for food handling training to open a restaurant. Even if you don´t have to get this paper where you are, you are responsible of serving good food. This means you have to know how to handle it, to be sure you are serving only good food. The other thing is: food is your money. So, if you don´t know how to handle it properly, it´ll cost your money.
