There is maybe nothing sadder than somebody eating in solitude on Thanksgiving, however for some Americans that are far from loved ones, it's a quite undeniable concern. Which is the reason a coffee shop in Northville, Michigan, called George's Senate Coney Island Restaurant offers free meals on Thanksgiving for the individuals who are alone.
The restaurant has been doing this kind service throughout the previous 10 years, but it only recently went viral on the web when a bystander snapped a photograph of the sign on the window and posted it on the social media website Reddit.
Restaurateur George Dimopoulos told ABC News that his offer starts from a personal knowledge of how difficult to be distant from everyone else on family holidays. He left home and moved to Athens at 12 years old, where he regularly needed to ask for food, then moved to the U.S. at 23, where he launched a string of popular Greek restaurants.
He also stated that the reason he do this good deed is because he was alone one time and he recalled both great and terrible times. Dimopoulos likewise said that he doesn't mind with trying to figure out whether somebody is abusing his kind deal.
Dimopoulos said 59 individuals enjoyed his all-you-can-eat buffet and "well known" Greek plate of mixed greens at his Northville restaurant a year ago, and 84 clients came through in 2013. Mostly men and young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 grab the deal.
He additionally included that George's Senate Coney Island clients are more than welcome to value a customary hot turkey plate with pureed potatoes and sauce, feast on Coney Island hot dogs and leave room for sweet.
Now that is the kind of generosity that sustains the stomach and the spirit.
The sign reads: "George's Thanksgiving Day Dinner. If anyone is home alone, come eat with us for free! All day."
