Hero Diner Enjoyed Meal So Much He Went Into Kitchen And Tipped All 17 Cooks $100

The Takeout tips its hat to workers in the restaurant industry. They get paid like shit, work nights/weekends/holidays, and have to put up with some awful customers. So let's bring you a happy restaurant story for once.

From the Chicago Tribune comes this story about a restaurant named Boka, which has earned itself rave reviews and a Michelin star. According to the Tribune, a customer named Mike was dining with five companions Sunday night. He was so enamored with his dinner, he first tipped $300 on his $769 dinner to the service staff. And because kitchen staff aren't tipped employees, he walked back into the kitchen and gave each of the 17 back-of-the-house staffers a $100 bill.

Mike, you stone-cold baller. We're impressed you brought at least 17 hondos with you. (As a Chicago resident, I can personally vouch for Boka. Of all the meals I've had in 2017, it was by far my favorite. You should go.)
