Squirrel gets the Chop

A trendy restaurant owned by designer Sir Terence Conran has added a new dish to the menu – roast squirrel.
The cheeky squirrel, a familiar favourite in the parks of London, appears on the 22-dish menu at the Chop House restaurant, near Tower Bridge alongside such dishes as crayfish soup, char-grilled ox liver and Cumberland sausages.
The dish has proved so popular that some diners have missed out.
At the end of World War II, the Ministry of Agriculture urged the UK to eat squirrel to relieve the food shortage.
