Lahey whined about being reviewed too soon (Bruni waited the standard 90 days after its opening) and went on to insult Bruni’s taste even though the critic offered him profuse praise for his pizza Bianca.
Along with gratuitious cheap shots that he directed toward Bruni, Lahey barked that the critic doesn’t understand his pizza and that his pizza bianca, which Bruni exalted, is “dog sh*t.” I guess a back-handed self-offense is not surprising from someone who so suffers from such a severe lack of professionalism and self-control. Honestly, Lahey, if you can’t take the critics, maybe it’s a sign that you ought to get out of the pizza kitchen.

One thing is for sure: Lahey’s publicist and anger counselor have their work cut out for them.
