We had a party of 4 in, a young couple celebrating their one year anniversary, along with their in-laws. The young couple also were surprising her parents with the news that they were expecting their first child. We pretended she was drinking vodka and tonics because that we be the norm, but they were just tonic waters. We brought a cupcake and created a special plaque with a message about the baby’s arrival! I gave them a GC to come on back for a date night once the baby is born and of course, they were thrilled about the PIF certificate!
Dealing with a Loss
Had a couple in for dinner who come in from time to time and are always smiling. Tonight they seemed a little down. Found out through their niece who is one of our servers that they recently had a family member taken far too young from their lives. I went and sat with them for a little and talked about life and love and how they are awakened by their loss. They kept telling me to live my life to the fullest and take everyday by the horns and make it better than the day before. I gave their party a gift certificate for their next visit and a Pay It Forward for someone else. She said they always feel like family in our restaurants. I told her that’s exactly what we are going for and that’s why they were my Random Act of Kindness today.
