ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 Last week, four more eateries across Central Florida were forced to close after a visit from a health inspector<\/a>, according to state records.<\/p>\n

These records show that the reported eateries experienced violations like rodent droppings, roaches, sewage backup, and storage issues.<\/p>\n

But one restaurant in particular \u2014 China Lee along South Kirkman Road in Orlando \u2014 had notable health violations not even two months after it was previously shut down<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Back in March, a health inspector noted that China Lee had over 100 live roaches and roughly 400 rodent droppings on its premises.<\/p>\n

While the issues this time around were far fewer in number, the restaurant still took around three days to meet inspection standards, finally being allowed to reopen on Friday.<\/p>\n

In fact, all of the Central Florida eateries that were forced to close down last week were eventually able to reopen after meeting health standards.<\/p>\n

The full list of Central Florida eateries required to close last week is as follows:<\/p>\n

DELAND<\/p>\n

Checkers \u2014 133 S. Woodland Blvd.<\/p>\n

ORLANDO<\/p>\n
