By the way, pizza is serious! The chef of an Italian restaurant in Australia, David Tamborella, lost the lawsuit in which he contested his dismissal from work: he tried to prove that the management of the establishment had no right to fire him because of his refusal to cook pizza with pineapple. The story there was this: the La Costa restaurant in Brisbane held a large banquet for which they paid $15,000, and one of the guests really wanted a pizza with ham and pineapple. When the order was delivered to the kitchen, Chef Tamburla refused to cook it, saying it was an insult to his country's culture. Two weeks later, Tamborla was fired, accusing him of "unconstructive behavior." The situation was complicated by the fact that Tamburla was in the process of obtaining a residence permit in Australia, the so-called. Visa 186, the procedure for issuing it states that the applicant must work all the time in the same enterprise for the entire time the application is being considered. And since Tamborli lost his job, he would have to start the process all over again. By the way, Tamborella knew about these risks, but still demonstrated culinary integrity and refused to prepare a dish that would offend any self-respecting Italian!
