Angry chef gives £1,000 from bill to waitress after rich diners 'acted inappropriately'

A chef has received wide support after handing his restaurant's biggest ever bill - £1,000 - to a waitress in full, who he says was "talked down to" and "disrespected" by diners.

Lee Skeet, owner of Cora, in Cardiff, took to Twitter urge others to "start calling out rich people who think they can treat people like crap". The restaurateur explained to followers how he had emailed the guest and asked them to "never come back", Cornwall Live reports.

Obscuring the diner's name, Lee wrote: "Dear ****, I wanted to firstly thank you for choosing my restaurant for your meal tonight, and I understand you had the biggest bill we've ever had on one table here. Unfortunately throughout the evening I was made aware that your party's behaviour was inappropriate towards Lily, who runs front of house."
