Pass

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

Plastic crates were being used to elevate food storage in the walk-in cooler.

Key Findings

  • Plastic crates were used as elevation in the walk-in cooler, which is not an approved storage method.
  • Rusty metal shelving inside the front prep coleslaw cooler requires replacement due to contamination risk.
  • Bicycles were stored in the rear dry food storage room and must be removed.

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