TOP celebrity chef James Martin has said he will handle a burger complaint after TV presenter Ewen Cameron hit out on social media.
We reported yesterday that The STV talk show host Cameron took to social media to share his disbelief at Martin's burger offering at the city's airport - which cost £9.50.
Dear @jamesmartinchef I’m not one for complaining but I feel you need to see what your name is attached to @AirportGlasgow

This is your cheeseburger at your restaurant & priced at £9:50 !
I’m guessing you’ll be annoyed as you’re a man who prides himself on his food. pic.twitter.com/jTsjOJvHzH

"I’m guessing you’ll be annoyed as you’re a man who prides himself on his food."
James Martin Kitchen opened at Glasgow airport and prides itself in food which is "made in-house to James’s exact specifications by highly trained chefs".
James responded to the tweet and said he would deal with the matter personally.
Hi Ewen I have just been made aware of this as I was working. Firstly can I apologise and I can assure you I will deal with it personally. Can I ask what time this was today and did you speak to a member of the team about this at the time. I apologise once again please DM me

I was quick to tweet my complaint to @jamesmartinchef about a burger at his establishment.

Well, I just wanted to publicly thank James for the correspondence I’ve had with him.
It was appreciated & shows he cares. Something that isn’t always the case in the catering industry.
Ewen later also humbling accepted the apology and tweeted: "I was quick to tweet my complaint to James Martin about a burger at his establishment.
