An example for us all to follow
Restaurant staff form a pretty invaluable part of our community. Without their hard work, it’d be hard for restaurants to operate, let alone provide customers with good service.
Kudos to Amelia and her family for recognising their efforts and taking the initiative to express their gratitude.
Perhaps their touching gesture will remind us to show F&B workers how much we appreciate them, wherever possible.
