But I didn't need it at all, as the pizza turned out to be one of the best I've ever had in my long life.

I went to sit down to wait and on collecting the pizzas the waiter ignored my hand under the boxes for the bag handle on the bag for the rest of the order and instead lifted my chin and put it under and then proceeded to touch my nose ‘bopping’ it 5 times slowly… I was in shock. Surreal. My arms full of food I couldn’t do anything. Felt like it would’ve never happened to a man. As a woman in her late twenties I felt insulted. As woman going in alone I felt harassed and humiliated. Degrading experience. I never have experienced anyone in hospitality touching me in any way and especially not without consent with their hands on my face during a pandemic. Awful behaviour. I work in hospitality and it is absolutely unheard of. I wouldn’t expect any stranger to do this to me let alone someone in a supposedly professional environment. I got the impression he thought I was younger than I was which I feel makes it worse as I was on my own. Really need to reconsider their front who of house who represent them or train them in basic decency, respect and treatment of customers. Totally unacceptable sexism and I feel taken advantage of.
