Man eats dinner alone in restaurant, what hotel staff did for him is going viral

In the busy life, we often lack company as we do our everyday things. Eating with someone might help us relax after a long hard day but in the fast-food life, we seldom have time to eat.

Prakash Mallya, MD at Intel India, stopped for a meal at Trident hotel in Bandra Kurla. Seeing him eating alone, the hotel staff placed a fish bowl on his table to ensure he had company.

Touched by the gesture, he tweeted “The hotel staff come by to leave this on my table as company given I was eating alone. So nice & thoughtful and something that’s never happened in all my travel thus far😊!”

This soon went viral on social media with people lauding the gesture and some claiming that a few other hotels have also done it for them recounting sweet memories.

Hotel officials said “At Trident Bandra Kurla – a large part of the clientele involves guests travelling on business who frequently dine alone. This delightful gesture of placing a fish bowl on the table is to keep guests engaged, thus adding a personal touch to their meal experience," reports Indian Express.
