As a matter of fact, Gothamist goes by the "don't ask, don't tell" policy of restaurant cleanliness: We're only freak out if we see a cockroach on the table, dirt on plates and flatware, or hair in the food (or else we'd never eat at half the places in the city). But upon reading this Page Six item about our favorite Italian restaurateur Mario Batali and how four employees werefired because they had an orgy of sorts at Bistro du Vent, we now wonder if we should wear a Hazmat suit the next time we go out for dinner. The details from Page Six:
The randy sex romp between an openly bisexual waitress, a male chef, a female manager and a waiter was captured on the West 42nd Street restaurant's surveillance cameras, which feed to a monitor right next to the host's stand...The Post adds that a night porter told other employees about the incident, which resulted in Bistro du Venties crowding "around the host stand monitor and watched the orgy unspool, freeze-framing it at points for maximum enjoyment." There's nothing like workplace camraderie - or workplace cameras.Our snitch, who saw the steamy surveillance footage, says the X-rated action took place "on the bar top, down to the floor, on top of the banquettes — chef on waitress, manager on waiter, waiter on waitress, all four tangled up in one bunch."
Gothamist on Mario Batali.

Good lord, don't post Mario's photo next to a story like this.
Don't ask how they make the Creme Fraiche.
at least it wasn't mario having the sex. because things would be breaking.
But did anyone tip?
Does anyone else think this is a publicity stunt for the Kitchen Confidential show?
what's an "openly bi-sexual waitress"?
it what you would call "a spicy meatball"
"openly heterosexual waiter..."
I'd wager that this is just another viral marketing campaign dreamed up by Donny Deutsch. He probably hired a team of porn stars to pose as employees of this restaurant, then had them going at it on the bar in an effort to drum up publicity. This campaign is more effective than the giant popsickle.
Was that wrong? Should they have not done that? I tell you they gotta plead ingnorance on this thing because if anyone had said anything to them at all when they first started there that that sort of thing was frowned upon, you know, cause I've worked in a lot of restaurants and I tell you people do that all the time.
so what they had an orgy. Better than to have turned the camera'a and drank three bottles of hermitage. it is definately not the first or last time for sex and after hours restaraunt work.
