Recently, I approached a parking lot in the French Quarter where I had left my car, only to learn the credit card machine was not working, requiring payment via cash only. Since I carry very little cash, I knew it wouldn’t be enough to retrieve my car. However, an extraordinary Napoleon House sous chef offered me $20 to supplement my cash. I was so grateful and amazed at his generosity and random act of kindness.
Several days later, my daughter delivered a repayment for my hero.
His thank you text message follows: “I only gave you $20 — thank you! You didn’t have to do that, but I appreciate it. Have a great day. “…
