A new UK government regulation meaning large hospitality businesses must now display calorie information on menus and food items has come into force. This new law will affect restaurants, coffee shops and take away food business operators with over 250 employees. The government encourages smaller businesses to provide calorie labelling voluntarily.
They have also not ruled out the possibility of extending the legislation to cover all food business operators in the future. Gianluca, General Manager of Italian restaurant Piccolinos on Lapwing Lane in Didsbury, is positive about the new ruling.
