Celebrity chef Mario Batali was acquitted on indecent assault charges but the industry is a byword for workplace harassment

Harassment complaints come to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission from restaurant workers more often than any other sector.Harassment complaints come to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission from restaurant workers more often than any other sector.Last modified on Sat 14 May 2022 08.01 BSThe Spotted Pig, the 100-seat gastropub in New York’s trendy West Village, is under renovation.

Last week, Batali, 61, was found not guilty of indecent assault and battery after a swift trial in Boston in a case unrelated to the Spotted Pig accusations. Batali had waived his right to have a jury decide his fate in a criminal case that arose from the #MeToo movement against sexual harassment and assault.

But the judge also rebuked Batali. “It’s an understatement to say that Mr Batali did not cover himself in glory on the night in question. His conduct, his appearance and his demeanor were not befitting of a public person of his stature at that time.”

To show their intent, the sector has hired the Federal LNP as consultants. The advisory panel consists of Scottie, Barnaby, Dutts, Tudgie and Ports. Huh? They want it stopped? WTF! We’re not equipped for that! Will someone call Jen!!! So the story is 'somebody was found not guilty of a relatively minor crime in a city in the other side of the planet, but let just assume it happened anyway'.
