A chef who served a baked Camembert in its original own-brand Asda packaging has been sacked.

Customer Emma Daniels ordered a baked Camembert at the Severn Shed restaurant in Bristol which was on the menu for £13, but was shocked to discover it was still in the original packaging.

On the supermarket shelves, the French cheese is sold for £1.15.

Ms Daniels wrote on TripAdvisor: “When we go out to eat we realise you pay for more than just the ingredients, you pay for atmosphere, staff, cooking etc etc.

GV of Severn Shed, Bristol. A diner at Bristol’s Severn Shed restaurant was cheesed off to be charged £13 for a £1.15 Asda own brand camembert still in its wrapper.

“What I didn’t expect was to order a sharing starter of Camembert and to be served Asda’s own brand Camembert in the original packaging!!

“Even when I cook it at home I cook it in a terracotta dish!!”

Manager Ashley Kirwan told The Caterer magazine: “We have taken action and the chef who was responsible is no longer in the business.
