After Top Chef Masters judge Jay Rayner criticized his final dish of New Zealand venison for being "staggeringly unsustainable," chef Rick Moonen took to Facebook: "I guess that Jay wants me to fly my food in by hot air balloon...

My menu speaks volumes always has!" Then he commented, "Public Verbal masturbation like a chimp in a zoo." [Facebook] Update: Moonen elaborates further in our interview.
