The Late Late Show host has been accused of bullying by the owner of posh Manhattan restaurant Balthazar – who called him a ‘tiny cretin’
The TV good guy became a nightmare in the kitchen for some waiters James Corden because of his angry outbursts… The Late Late Show host has been accused of bullying by the owner of Manhattan’s famed high-end restaurant Balthazar – who called him a “tiny cretin” and temporarily banned him from dining there again until he apologized, as the Englishman later did…
“[Είναι] the customer who has bowled the most to my waiters at Balthazar since the restaurant opened 25 years ago,” commented Keith McNally in a scathing Instagram post.
McNally blamed Corden, who has admitted he had his anger management problems in the past, that he treated his waiters badly by asking for free dishes and yelling at them.
According to a manager’s report, the first confrontation with Corden happened in June. The seemingly good-natured presenter reportedly ate his main course before showing a waiter a hair on his order.
“Bring us more free drinks this second,” Corden demanded of McNally. “And also take care (pay for) all our drinks so far. Otherwise I’m writing bad reviews on yelp or something,” he reportedly said.
The second incident happened on Oct. 9, according to McNeely’s post.
Corden reportedly called a waiter over to complain to them about it a little… egg white mixed with the egg yolk in his wife’s scrambled eggs.
The restaurant made his wife’s meal again, but served it with fries instead of salad. That was enough for Corden to “shout like crazy” at the waiter. “You can’t do your job! You can’t do your job,” he allegedly yelled. “Maybe I should go to the kitchen and cook the omelette myself!”
The dish person noted that Corden “behaved similarly at my former restaurant, Cafe Luxembourg, a few years ago.”
But a few hours after his original post, McNally updated his post, saying he had received a phone call from Corden apologizing.
“James Corden just called me and humbly apologized,” McNally wrote. “(…) I firmly believe in second chances” he said among other things.
Good ending all good for Corden and his tantrums? Currently…
