Feast Fest chef Jon Chu blasted scandal-stricken FFer in a series of tweets Friday that some said went too far.
Chu tweeted: "Hope FF does not re-sign that absolute jerk @FeastFestDreim"; "absolute idiocy is the only thing that could lead to re-signing of that haughty, insufferable and condescending @FeastFestDreim"; "i [sic] must say i [sic] worked on the same line of power as @FeastFestDreim for five Feast Fests and hes [sic] the most incorrigible person its [sic] ever been my displeasure to work with"; and "@FeastFestDreim was right to resign he'll never embody the spirit we look for at Feast Fest, hes an all out jerk."
Attempts to reach Chu or Chu's agent were unsuccessful. FF Executive Assistant Arthur Ayeiy remarked, "While we want the chefs' honest opinions of Dreim to aid us in whether or not to have him rejoin our event, we believe Chu's insults crossed a line."
Nine chefs, including Chu, have condemned Dreim, while another nine have defended him.
"It's a mixed bag with Steve Dreim," said Chef Jack Mark, who is one of the few chefs with a neutral view of the fixture. "You love him or you hate him, that's why he's Steve Dreim. As one of the small number of chefs who views Dreim neutrally, I'll say none of Chu's or anyone else's remarks surprise me."
