Last night I took Guy out to eat at El Fenix for his birthday. (For the people that don't know me that is my finace'). We had a nice lady for a waitress. Guy ordered a margarita and he was telling her it was his birthday. After we finished eating dinner some Spanish guys all surrounded the table dancing around and singing Happy Birthday to Guy. I thought that was very nice. They gave him a dessert of soapillas with cool whip and strawberries.
We sat there awhile longer as he was finishing his drink. I noticed a lady alone in the next booth having wine with her meal. We got a to go box as I can never finish all my meal. The waitress told us we got no ticket as someone had paid for our meal already. OMG! I was in shock. I had heard of this at fast food places when your driving thru but never at a restaurant. Our bill was probably $30 or more.
We went up to the cashier and told her. She said yes a lady paid for our dinner and wished Guy a very Happy Birthday! That was so very nice. Wish we knew who it was so we could thank her. I think it was that lady who was sitting in the booth next to us but have no way to know for sure.
For someone to do that for you just leaves you with a good feeling. I cant describe it and no one knows that feeling unless it happens to you. We were pretty happy the rest of the night.
It made me stop and think. A little kindness goes a long ways. There are some good people in this world. I want to repay that lady back by paying it forward!
