Hog's Breath Cafe Australian general manager Ross Worth said he had taken immediate action to make sure an instance like this will never happen again.

‘We have moved to ensure every plug has been chained to the sink,’ he told News Limited.

He said the plug in question was from a sanitised ice bath that is used to wash lettuce and tomatoes.

While social media users may have taken the incident lightly, Mr Worth said he had taken the issue ‘very seriously’.

‘We alerted the health department and have had them go in and check everything is up to scratch there, which of course it is.’

Mr Worth said he reached out and apologised to the woman who was served the unusual side.
