Look, not to victim-blame anyone in this story, but before you read what follows, please remember: It is a very dangerous game to deprive a middle-aged gay man of brunch. It’s basically the bottom (heh) of their food pyramid.
Anyway, Zachary Quinto allegedly made a restaurant host cry during the most important meal of the day. Manita, a Toronto-based “Mediterranean-ish†restaurant, accused Quinto of being a “terrible customer†in a June 2 Instagram post. Maybe being in Ryan Murphy shows made him comfortable being an American horror story in Canada. According to Manita, Quinto did not respond to “two texts to inform him his table was ready†and then “refused to believe the empty tables in the dining room weren’t available for him despite being politely informed they were spoken for.†From there, he was apparently mean enough that the host of the restaurant cried. (We would like to see the video.)
Notably, June 2 was also Quinto’s birthday (making him a Gemini … tracks). So this wasn’t just regular anger; this was birthday anger. “Mr. Quinto, take your bad vibes somewhere else, we have many lovely celebrities join us at Manita but you are NOT one of them,†the post concluded. Still, if we had to choose, James Corden’s alleged abuse of the Balthazar staff takes the cake. At least Quinto wasn’t called “a tiny Cretin of a man.â€
