PizzAut Says 50 Teachers No-Showed Booking as Report Says Mattarella Called With Support

The social enterprise says the group failed to cancel through TheFork, causing a loss for staff with autism.

Overview

  • About 50 teachers reserved a lunch at PizzAut in Monza via TheFork but did not attend on the day of the booking.
  • PizzAut says it handles reservations and cancellations only through the app and has no phone number for calls.
  • Staff including an educator named Kerol tried to confirm the large booking, reached the group around noon, and were told they would not come.
  • The teachers reportedly said they tried to call in August during the restaurant’s closure, a claim PizzAut disputes given its app-only system.
  • Nico Acampora shared the incident on social media, reporting financial harm and disappointment, and Il Fatto Quotidiano reports President Sergio Mattarella called to express solidarity, with no public response from the teachers or their school.
