An Indian restaurant located next to the University of Central Florida was forced to temporarily close its doors for a second time this year after a health inspector cited multiple code violations, including the presence of roaches.
According to a report filed with the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Ahmed Indian Restaurant UCF Orlando, which is located at 10042 University Boulevard, was forced to close on Monday, April 10 after a failed health inspection.
The health inspector cited at least 18 code violations, including 5 considered high priority.
During the inspection, at least five live roaches were spotted in different areas around the restaurant. Additionally, a stop sale was issued for lamb that was cooling overnight on a walk-in cooler with too high of a temperature.
The report also cited that raw chicken tenders were stored over raw lamb in a freezer and were not properly separated.
The business was reinspected on the same day and permitted to reopen, despite 15 violations remaining.
In February, the restaurant was forced to close after 15 health code violations were cited. It was permitted to reopen the following day after only five violations remained during a re-inspection.
