Britain accommodates more cultural needs of its Muslim citizens than any other European country; for example, it allows Muslim policewomen to cover their hair with a headscarf.

Better yet, the chef, Theo Schoenegger (yes, he's Italian), can make some music too, including a killer agnoletti topped with shaved truffle.
