Burger served with legal warning
Diners wanting to tuck into a restaurant's £12 gourmet burgers were told they had to sign a disclaimer.
Managers at the Marriott West India Quay in east London's Docklands asked customers to complete the form if they wanted rare or medium-rare meat.

The chef on duty also had to sign the paper which waived the restaurant's liability for food-poisoning.

Customers were urged to have their burgers cooked "medium or above" instead to reduce the risk.

A spokesman for Marriott said they stopped using the forms on Monday but warned customers they had the rare or medium-rare burgers "at their own risk".
