Beurger King Muslim
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beurger King Muslim (or BKM) is a fast-food restaurant launched in July 2005 offering burgers, fries, sundaes, cola and doughnuts. The beef and chicken used in their burgers are halal—meaning made with meat slaughtered according to Islamic dietary laws. It is located in the eastern Paris suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois, where many locals are first- or second-generation Muslim immigrants from former French colonies.
Its name plays on the French slang (Verlan) word beur, meaning a second-generation North African living in France. France's Muslims represent an estimated 8% of the country's overall population.
