Question 5

Halal food and restaurants in England

Accepted Answer

Home to one of the best food scenes, England has found itself evolving, adapting to other cultures and foods. International cuisine has become deeply ingrained within English culture, and Kebab, Chinese or Curry have even become a weekly ritual for many English people. For the Muslim traveller, there are many halal options, ranging from Turkish or Lebanese to Indian, with halal Korean, Thai, Caribbean and much more available within major cities. Many fast-food and chain restaurants, especially those in big cities, do use halal meat - it’s always worth checking.
For those looking for a more authentic English dinner, you are not out of luck. If you want to try the traditional English dish of fish and chips, you need to double-check that it is fried in vegetable oil - traditionally, the south of the country fries in vegetable oil and the north in beef dripping. The traditional Sunday roast might once have been inaccessible to the Muslim traveller due to a lack of halal dining, however, these days plenty of restaurants offer halal meat options - chicken is usually the most readily available halal meat in England. And lastly, the most English experience we know is the humble scone with afternoon tea. English people arguably consume more tea than anybody else, and afternoon tea is one of the traditions that have lasted the test of time.
