Geoff:
The UK Pizza Hut is probably the biggest pizza operation in 
the country; they do have a takeaway delivery but the restaurant 
side is very popular.

The pudding menu often contains British favourites like banana 
split, knockerbocker glory or peach melba, often on the ice cream
side but, as I reported, profiteroles have sneaked in there.
