Subject: regex for &

Hiya

I have three sentences.

This is a nice hotel.
The view & food is good.
We are at the Victoria & Alfred Hotel.

I need a perl regex / code to not print out sentence 2 (basically
fail).

This is what I so far.

print $_ if $_ !~ /\&|Victoria \&/ig;

Im struggling to get this right.

TIA.

#! /usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict ;

while (<DATA>) {
print $_ if $_ !~ /\&|Victoria \&/ig;
}

__DATA__
This is a nice hotel.
The view & food is good.
We are at the Victoria & Alfred Hotel.
