Special Delivery

GNHR T-BONES Hudson 1 Comment

Over the past month or so we have been receiving a weekly takeout from a few teachers down the road at Nottingham West. Since they cannot leave the school, we are more than happy to accommodate them and deliver their takeout right to the office of the school. Since they are in their classrooms, I have yet to meet the teachers actually placing the order. I thought it would be nice to surprise them with lunch on us and let them know how much we appreciate their business. The woman who accepted the takeout & my details on our Random Act of Kindness promotion was more than happy to pass the message along for me!

1 Day Too Late!

Joe & Diane came in with their significant others. I had delivered their cups of soup and began to chat with them and they told me about how great their server, Scott, was. This was quite the fun group, they were having drinks and really just enjoying each others company and I had yet to see them stop talking. I then delivered their Fish & Chip dinners which each of them had. I started to realize that they must have come in for our 40 Day Fish Fry special, but they had just missed it by just one day. Just to confirm, I went back after I saw them finishing up to see how everything was and to ask what brought them in tonight? They were telling me how amazing our soups are, our service is always wonderful, our fish is better than any seafood restaurant around, and for all those reasons they came in. Then they said they were really looking forward to catching the 40 Day Fish Fry special before it ended. I told them that I had assumed that’s what they were looking for &  apologized that they missed the special. I then told them I had something even better for them- Dinner on us! I explained the Random Act of Kindness promotion and they were thrilled. I received a hand shake, a hug, and a sincere ‘Thank You’ from each of them. They really love T-BONES; visit multiple times a week, and this just exceeded any of their expectations. They look forward to paying it forward and spreading the word about what we’re doing here at T-BONES!

Big Changes!

Bobby & Thuy have had a lot of big changes & big purchases in the last year or so! A baby girl, new house, and most recently the purchase of a new car! They came in twice this week as they were purchasing their car from the Subaru dealer right down the road. Since they live in Derry they typically go to our Derry location. So of course, I was very happy to have seen them twice in one week! I thought it would be sweet to hook them up with lunch on us! They love T-BONES and love what we’re doing. They were more than happy to pay it forward!

Mary was in to celebrate her 91st birthday with her children and their spouses. After singing happy birthday to her, and then hearing how happy she was and how much she loved our Baked Haddock; I knew she was deserving of a Random Act of Kindness. I let her and her family know that her lunch was on us and they couldn’t believe it! Mary is very excited to pay it forward and also to come back again to celebrate next year! 🙂

Looks Can Be Deceiving

Since I do not live in Hudson, I did not know some guests & what their professions are. However, I was lucky enough to have Rachel working host the other afternoon and she gave me some insight on a table of young men who wouldn’t have looked more to me than a group of guys out for some lunch & drinks. Come to find out, they were very deep into helping improve our community in many ways with the careers they had chosen. Some were police officers, teachers, and some on their way to getting their masters. We thought it would be nice to hook them up with lunch to thank them for all they do day in and day out! They were very surprised & more than happy to pay it forward when they were out and about!

Ladies Lunch

Two women came in for lunch yesterday to enjoy their very favorite dish, Fresh Baked Haddock. After stopping by to chat, I learned quite a bit about these ladies. Nearly a 30 year age difference, (one of them feisty as ever at 94) they had found quite the friendship after becoming neighbors some time ago. They were joking about how they almost read each other’s minds sometimes, and how comforting it was to have each other since they had both lost their husbands/family who they spent the majority of their time with. I let them know about our Random Act of Kindness promotion and they thought it was amazing. I told them I was picking up their lunch, and they couldn’t believe it! These are my favorite RAKs! I received hugs from both and a sincere ‘Thank you’. They were more than happy to pay it forward!

Thibodeau from Tilton

Making my rounds, I had stopped at a table to offer to box up their meals as they were noticeably ready to pack it up. They proceeded to let me know how much they enjoyed their meals, and how they absolutely loved the Crawfish Gumbo & Jambalaya from our Louisiana Cookin’ menu. They were the sweetest couple and I knew that they would be perfect to receive a little something special. I let them know that they were my RAK & explained what our company was doing and they loved it! They let me know that they came all the way from Tilton to join us for the evening and that we had just made their night and couldn’t wait to spread the word!

Giggly Girls

Thursday we had a group of young girls who had a case of the giggles. They were clearly excited to be out for lunch and seeing all their friends & teachers come and go as they too were on school vacation. Since they had just missed Kids Eat Free by one day, I hooked them & their babysitter up with lunch on us! They were very appreciative and happy to go out and find someone to PIF to!

Father Son Lunch

Today’s RAK went to a father and son who were dining in for lunch. They seemed to really be enjoying each others’ company and I think those are the times you have to cherish the most! I hooked them up with lunch and they couldn’t even believe it! They were heading right out to pay it forward 🙂

Cravings

My RAK on Thursday was actually given out by one of our kitchen managers, Tony Palevicius. He loves to participate in random acts and knew the perfect couple to hook up. We bought dinner for a couple who Tony knew had just had some health scares and knew how important that it was to see them out and about. They were very thankful and happy to pay it forward!
