For a disgruntled former head chef, it seems, just one moment – or, more specifically, one ingredient – was all it took to break the spell conjuring the “luxurious splendor of Italy’s coastline” and to plonk his diners right back into the nightclub district of Queensland’s Fortitude Valley. That ingredient was pineapple. On a pizza.
The Fair Work Commission heard that Tamburella acknowledged that this was the third time he had refused this direction, instead requesting Ingram “check how important it is for Italians not to put pineapple on a pizza”.
The restaurant where that littler pissing contest took plaace is now out of business. In his LinkedIn profile, Tamburella describes himself as committed to “delivering exceptional food” and “improving business performance.” According to the BBC, he posted a “letter for chefs” with the theme “respecting the ingredients” earlier this year. Tamburella has reportedly found employment at another Brisbane restaurant, where pineapple is blessedly not on its menu.
