Maybe it's just me and my early morning crankiness, but this article on a Chicago area restaurant cited for health violations reads like a fever-dream narrative. Pecadillos aside, II Jacks Restaurant's violations seem pale in comparison to others I've read about. Of course this is coming from someone who would eat steak off the floor.
