“It got quite physical nearly,” he said to The Northern Star of the row with a team, who he does not want to name as he isn’t sure if the controversial incident will even make the cut.

The owner of top Sydney nosh spot 4Fourteen revealed that the fiery altercation took place after a series of verbal showdowns.
“There were a few heated exchanges,” explains the father-of-two.
“Some of it was over the food, some of it was over me just being annoyed – some people say stuff and you keep pulling them up on it and chipping away.”
“That’s my job to find out what they don’t know and some people don’t like that,” he continued. “They don’t like to be questioned.”
It’s not the first time things have got heated on the show.
