A WODONGA restaurateur is mortified his social media post has caused offence. Miss Amelie owner and executive chef David Kapay said kitchen banter had been taken out of context in a video posted to the restaurant's Instagram page on Sunday. In the video Mr Kapay says: "I think there's going to be some semi-hot b****** in the crowd." He said he was regurgitating words used earlier by a female chef. "I thought it was a video of me plating up canapes," Mr Kapay said. "I didn't even think it had audio; it captured inappropriate kitchen banter. I'm extremely apologetic; I was stupid to post it." A Melbourne-based Border Mail reader, who grew up in Albury, said he was shocked when he noticed the Instagram post on Sunday: "I just think it's a bit disrespectful to his customers." IN OTHER NEWS: David's wife, Sally Kapay, said her husband and father to their two daughters was a wonderful role model. She said five out of seven kitchen staff at Miss Amelie were female and there were no men working on the floor. "He is a role model and champion for women in the industry," she said.
