The Bistro Torino run by
Italian celebrity chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo has been fined
1,500 euros after health inspectors found that frozen foods
allegedly used in preparation were not correctly indicated on
the menus, sources said Friday.
Restaurant manager Giuseppe Savoia and Cannavacciuolo's wife
Cinzia Primatesta, who runs the restaurant chain, were also
reported.
"There was an asterix missing. The food in the freezer was
for us. Stories of this nature make you want to get up and
leave," Cannavacciuolo, a judge on the Italian version of
reality show Masterchef, told La Stampa.
The inspectors also reportedly found raw materials that could
not be traced.
"The details of the single suppliers had not been written in
the restaurant's log book. Clearly in the last three days no one
had found the time," Cannavacciuolo said.
