The White Bear — Restaurant in England

My little boy had severe food poisoning from this restaurant on Friday afternoon! We waited over a hour for our food and when the beef burger came it looked well fired however they have obviously cooked it on a high heat too quickly and the burger had not cooked all the way through he left some on his plate but the damage had already been done as he’s only 5 and its still made Him very ill within a few hours of eating it! you would think the chef would have checked as they knew it was for a child.
