SHE’S sat through countless boring roast lamb state banquets during her years on the throne but the Queen is in for a spicy treat next week when she and Prince Philip tuck into an Indian feast during a visit to Huddersfield.

The monarch – usually known for her liking of plain food – will sample lamb kofta, masala fish and karahi okra, poppadums and pickles. The idea was put forward by officials in the Yorkshire town, which has a large Asian population.

“It’s the first time in my experience that the Queen has had an Indian lunch on one of these visits,” says a courtier about the Kashmiri banquet, which will be cooked by restaurant chain Mumtaz.

“It’s every chef’s dream to cook for the Queen so this is a special day,” said director Rab Nawaz.

It is not known if the royal couple have expressed a preference for Cobra or Kingfisher lager with their meal.

If I were the queen I would NOT eat in this eating house.
My friend who used to work in such places said it was usual to taint the food in some way of someone famous.
I cannot say more as it would make you sick.

UGH.
