ORLANDO, Fla. – Last week, over half a dozen eateries across Central Florida were forced to close after a visit from a health inspector, according to state records.
These records show that the reported eateries experienced violations like improper storage, rodent droppings, cockroaches and more.
However, most of these restaurants were allowed to reopen within a day or two after meeting inspection standards.
