On the contrary my dear old thing, it appears retribution has been swift from the Manchester restaurant shareholders for a chef who preferred his customers to fine dine at an East Midlands Airport table, and was summoned by the owners above, who found out indirectly via a telling off from a higher authority.
The owners nearly choked when full details of how the menu was put together was read back to them.
Moral of the story - You should always book your customers at a place where they wish to eat, it appears our chef was taking orders by phone and sending them many miles away without the knowledge or consent of the owners.
