Foodie feud-Conran Vs Lander

I have watched enough Scorsese to 'Gangsta-it-up'



Vs.


Please don't call me a Moby Look-a-like

Sir Terence Conran has come out swinging at his omission from Nicolas Landers latest book, 'The Art of the Restaurateur’. After months of dignified silence, ‘Big Ted’ as he is affectionately known by employees, exploded in a fury when local reporter, Shaz Mayberry, from the Kidderminster Shire Gazette enquired: ‘How does it feel to be left out of the most important book on restaurants ever written?’
After trashing the Tudor dining room in the ‘Buggered Badger’ pub on Kidderminster Common  ‘Big Ted’ went on a two day rampage throughout the shire ending with a police standoff at the gazettes printing press.
Nicolas Lander explained that years ago he was told by door staff at Conan’s Mezzo that they were fully booked and he’s held a grudge ever since, 'I mean, does that man not know whom I was to become?!'
‘Leaving Ted out of the book’ was a no-brainer really', he said before excusing himself to attend to his latest book, ‘Important chefs in the world I’m going to ignore’.
Bandwagon thinks this feud is far from over.
