Pass

A follow-up to confirm violations from a routine visit were fixed.

Garlic bread stored directly in cardboard box instead of approved food-safe container.

Key Findings

  • Garlic bread was stored in direct contact with a cardboard box behind the cook's line; management was instructed to use only cleanable containers or line boxes with plastic.
  • Multiple food-contact and non-food surfaces needed cleaning, including dry storage containers, shelves, wire racks, prep tables, cooking equipment (stove, fryers, ovens, broilers, grill), and cooler interiors.
  • Food prep area walls and floors were dirty, with particular buildup under and behind cooking equipment.

Key findings are derived directly from the inspector's notes from the Chicago Department of Public Health. See the full violation notes below.
