.....he is an artist, after all, and they are sensitive types......

Not, apparently, sensitive to the feelings of others. Calling him a prat, or an arsehole is quite frankly an gratuitous insult to prats and arseholes everywhere. He's nowhere near that high on the food chain.

As for patronising any restaurant that would allow him in a kitchen, I'd rather eat worms. Come to think of it, the way his mind works.....
