Aug 13, 2025 โ€” Canvass inspection

Conditional

A routine, unannounced visit by a city health inspector.

Nonfunctional freezer and backed-up drain created food safety hazards requiring immediate repairs.

Key Findings

  • One freezer was completely shut off and unusable; staff were instructed not to use it until repairs are made and CDPH reinspects.
  • The three-compartment sink was backing up with waste water whenever the adjacent hand sink was used; a plumber cleared the grease trap and drains during the inspection.
  • Bread and single-service items were stored directly on the floor in rear areas instead of elevated at least 6 inches.
  • The two-door prep cooler lacked a thermometer to monitor temperature, and the ice machine had no backflow prevention device.

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