63 sickened at famous eatery
Danish food safety officials ordered a cleanup and better food handling at Noma, one of the world's top restaurants, after 63 people fell ill with vomiting and diarrhea from eating at the two-star Michelin eatery. The establishment has also hit the top spot three times on the world's best list in Restaurant magazine. The Danish Veterinary and Food Administration said Friday it had investigated the waterfront restaurant in Copenhagen after complaints from customers who had dined there during a week in February. It was not clear what food had caused the infection. Manager Peter Kreiner apologized and said the staff was trying to track the source of the infection.
Queen resumes her royal duties
Britain's Queen Elizabeth II will resume her royal duties next week after a brief illness, Buckingham Palace officials said Friday. The officials said the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, plan to attend a Westminster Abbey service Monday to mark Commonwealth Day with another event scheduled later in the week. The 86-year-old monarch was hospitalized overnight on Sunday for treatment of gastroenteritis. It was her first hospitalization in a decade. Officials said the queen's overall health remains good and she is not cutting back on her activities.
