About
Bay Area Food Safety Academy
Bay Area Food Safety Academy trains San Francisco restaurant teams to cook safely and pass inspections with confidence. Our instructors have worked on the line and alongside health inspectors, and our classes are practical: real temperatures, real logs, real questions from your kitchen. We teach in English, Spanish and Cantonese, run weekly food handler classes and monthly manager certification sessions, and come to your restaurant for mock inspections before the real one.

Food Safety & Compliance
On-Site Mock Health Inspection
A former health inspector walks your kitchen, storage and dining room with the same checklist the city uses: temperatures, date labels, handwashing stations, pest signs, sanitizer levels and paperwork. Two hours on site, scheduled before service. Within 24 hours you get a written report ranking every issue by risk, with photos and the fix for each.
