Score
Inspectors have visited Bread Basket 17 times, with records going back to 2010. On Dec 6, 2018, the health department conducted the most recent visit. High risk indicates the latest inspection turned up problems worth knowing about. Note that Bread Basket's inspection history hasn't been updated since Dec 6, 2018; current conditions may have shifted from what the file shows.
The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around seven violations each, up from closer to five violations before.
When inspectors have written things up, “food and non-food contact surfaces properly designed” has been the most frequent reason, cited 10 times.
By comparison, the average Chicago facility scores 81, putting Bread Basket on the weaker side. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
