In the process, the vehicle also collided with a nearby motorcycle.

Fortunately, the bike sustained only minor damage and was able to drive away afterward.

As the incident occurred outside of peak hours, not many customers were affected by the crash.

Diners continued enjoying their meals as if nothing had happened, while a few onlookers gathered outside to witness the aftermath.

Owner treats shocked couple to meal

The elderly couple was understandably shaken after the accident.

 

To soothe their nerves, the restaurant owner generously treated them to a complimentary meal.

Fortunately, the couple only suffered shock and were unharmed in the incident.

When their relatives arrived to check on them, they prepared to pay for the couple’s meal.

However, the owner graciously insisted on treating them for free, showing kindness in a stressful situation.
