"You don't know what they're doing in the kitchen."

In response to a gay couple closing their Morris, MB restaurant, after only 4 months, due to excessive homophobic comments and behaviour, one local restaurant owner, George Lfantis, said "a lot of people don't like it, you don't know what they're doing in the kitchen." That's right George, we don't know what they're doing in the kitchen. Actually, come to think of it, we don't know what you're doing in the kitchen either. In fact, we don't know what anyone is doing in the kitchen of a restaurant, it's a risk you take when you eat at a restaurant. What a ridiculous thing for a restaurant owner to say.

Perhaps people should be more concerned about the quality of the restaurant food they eat or the cleanliness of the kitchen it was prepared in rather than the sexual orientation of the chef.
