A live worm was allegedly found inside food purchased from PAUL bakery in Pune, raising fresh concerns over food quality and hygiene. A video shared on social media appears to shows a worm crawling inside a slice of dessert.
“Couple of months back I took parcel for home from Paul bakery in Phoenix Mall in Viman Nagar, Pune. And found a worm in It,” he added.
The food was purchased from PAUL Bakery at Phoenix Marketcity in Pune’s Viman Nagar area, according to a post on X. PAUL Bakery and Cafe claims to offer a “truly French casual dining experience” and has 12 outlets across India. “PAUL bakery products are pathetic,” a customer wrote on X with a video showing a worm in food he got from PAUL bakery. After the post went viral, Mathur received a message from the restaurant management, seeking to apologise for the “unfortunate experience”. Sharing a screenshot of a conversation with the restaurant management, Mathur said the dining facility is “trying to apologise and move on”.
The video, though old, has surfaced on social media now, days after a separate worm-related complaint at a PAUL outlet in Gurugram. A man found a live worm in a sandwich at the PAUL restaurant at One Horizon Centre on Gurugram’s Golf Course Road. The customer, Sulabh Mathur, had eaten a part of the sandwich before he spotted a worm crawling inside his food. We were horrified to find A LIVE WORM in their Ceasars Salad! (sic)” the customer captioned the video on Instagram. “Extremely disturbing and concerning. Food hygiene compromised,” he added. A video recorded by the customer showing the crawling worm has since gone viral.
“We went for breakfast around 11 AM and ordered 6-7 dishes.
