He said: “We wanted to bring the halal concept of McDonald’s and Burger King - Fat Twins have a very similar product and we knew it would be a great attraction.”

Alongside burgers, the store also sells hot wings, mozzarella sticks, popcorn chicken and chili cheese nuggets.

And it sells three types of karak chai including original, masala chai and Kashmiri pink.

The restaurant’s food will soon also be available on Just Eat, Deliveroo and Uber Eats.
