James Corden has been slammed again by Balthazar staff after he attempted to explain his recent "rude" behaviour at their restaurant.
The Gavin and Stacey star, 44, was accused of "yelling like crazy" after his wife received an omelette with "a little bit of egg white mixed with the egg yolk".
Addressing the incident on The Late Late Show on Monday, James said: "My wife explained that she has a serious food allergy. The meals came, my wife was given the food that she was allergic to...her meal came wrong to the table the third time."
After apologising for the way he handled things, the host received a round of applause from the audience - but staff at Balthazar restaurant aren't having any of it.
A source said the comedian shouldn't have ordered an omelette if his wife had an egg allergy, insisting that James was "very, very rude".
"I'm sorry but that is bulls**t,' one server said.
"He wanted an omelette that had only egg yolks. Not the egg-white omelette, just egg yolks.
"Why then would you even bother ordering an omelette if you're allergic to eggs?" reports MailOnline.
Addressing why he didn't apologise immediately after the incident, James told the CBS show: "Because I didn't shout or scream, I didn't get up out of my seat, I didn't call anyone names or use derogatory language, I have been walking around thinking that I've not done anything wrong.
"But I have. I made a rude comment," he said, adding that he "values and respects" anyone and everyone in the service industry, particularly as he used to wait tables before he was famous.
Balthazar's owner Keith McNally initially banned James from his restaurant.
However, after his appearance on The Late Late Show, he took to Twitter saying he'd welcome the Fat Friends star back.
Keith said: "Last night on his TV show James very graciously apologised for his outburst at Balthazar.
"It takes a real man to do this. In the past, I've behaved much worse than Corden, but wasn't man enough to apologise. For this reason, I'm going to lift the ban on Corden."
However, after James initially told the NY Times he hadn't done anything wrong, Keith wasn't so cordial.
He said: "I’ve no wish to kick a man when he’s down. Especially one who’s worth $100 Million, but when James Corden said in yesterday’s NY Times that he hadn’t done "anything wrong, on any level," was he joking? Or was he denying being abusive to my servers?
"Whatever Corden meant, his implication was clear: he didn’t do it.
"Although I didn’t witness the incident, lots of my restaurant’s floor staff did. They had nothing to gain by lying. Corden did."
