A casual burger joint near the University of Central Florida was forced to temporarily close its doors last week after multiple roaches were found during a health inspection.
Build My Burgers, which is located at 3402 Technological Avenue, Suite 136, in Orlando, shut down shortly after 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, January 6, due to a failed health inspection conducted by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
The eatery was cited for a dozen violations during the initial inspection, including the presence of six live roaches. In the report, the health inspector noted that the live roaches were found under a sink in the dish area and on a wall next to the reach-in freezer.
Additionally, the inspector found 10 dead roaches and one egg sack inside the restaurant.
Other violations mentioned in the report include a garbage can blocking a handwashing sink in the kitchen and several items being stored on the floor, including oil, seasoning, and cases of to-go containers.
The restaurant remained closed, and the inspector returned on Wednesday, January 7. During that visit, no further roach activity was observed inside the eatery.
While seven violations were cited in the January 7 report, the inspector noted that inspection standards were met, and Build My Burgers was permitted to reopen that morning.
