North Korea opens new luxury dog meat restaurant in 'healthy eating drive'

A luxury dog meat restaurant is being built in an exclusive area of the North Korean capital after being approved by Kim Jong-un who is pushing "healthier eating", it is reported.

Occupying a prime river bank location, the ‘Dog Meat Delicacy House’ will be near the well-known Okryugwan noodle restaurant in Pyonyang.

It is believed that the opening of the restaurant and others similar that offer dog meat as a delicacy is part of a drive by the state to improve people’s diets.
