Jewish celebrity chef Ed Halmagyi has opened up on the threatening note slid under the door of his inner Sydney bakery after the establishment was vandalised on the weekend with anti-Semitic symbols used by Hamas.
Jewish celebrity chef Ed Halmagyi has hit back at"cosplay radicals" after his bakery was vandalised with anti-Semitic symbols and being given a threatening note.
The chef, who had a 20-year stint on Better Homes and Gardens, chose not to scrub the symbol associated with the militant group, which Australia lists as a terrorist organisation, off his shop’s windowfront. “I thought about , but I thought, that’s a very silly thing to do because people should know that this stuff happens,” he told The Australian.
“But the fact is, it’s hard to be intimidated by inner-city middle-class Cosplay Radicals who graduated primary school without their pen licence.”
