West Side Dominick's Closed

By Marcus Gilmer in News on Aug 8, 2008 2:30PM

Dominick's is the new Whole Foods: a Near-West Side Dominick's grocery store was closed when a health inspector found both fruit flies and houseflies in a rear kitchen area and on storage boxes. The store, located at 1 N. Halsted, hopes to reopen later today. Dominick's spokeswoman Wynona Redmond said, "We go to great lengths for sanitation and we have some of the highest store standards in the food industry...The issue with fruit flies has been addressed, we took it very seriously."
