Dawn Sliger, a server at Masala Mantra, had been working to save for a car when she got the generous gratuity
“I’m not looking for anything fancy, I had a $2,000 cap,” she said.
She was surprised when she looked at the signed bill.
“The only thing else I could say was, ‘Do you wanna receipt for that?’ And we were all laughing so hard,” Sliger said. “You know for him to do that and to give, it just made my year.”
The man who gave the tip wanted to remain anonymous. He said Sliger’s passion for life was why he gave her the tip.
Sliger hopes to take the man to dinner when she gets the car.
“It’s definitely magical; that’s for sure,” Sliger said. “I’m excited to go into the new year and what a way to do that because of a simple act of kindness.”
