Chrissy Teigen and John Legend love Outback Steakhouse's bloomin' onions. But really, who doesn't? They're an oversized-plate-sized excuse to eat nothing but sweet and salty goodness. If you've never had a bloomin' onion from Outback Steakhouse, you're missing out.
Chrissy, her husband John Legend and her their baby daughter Luna took a trip to Outback Steakhouse recently for one of their coveted bloomin' onions, but the night ended up delivering something far better — an opportunity for kindness.
That night, their waitress was a 21-year-old named Mikayla Scott. And little did she know, her life was about to change.
She told WHIOTV7 that she was nervous to serve Chrissy at first. The supermodel came in just before closing on Friday, October 27 with her daughter, Luna, and four friends. "She walked in with all her glam," Scott said, "I was so nervous I was going to do something wrong."Chrissy and her family only spent $191.81 at the restaurant.
But at the end of the meal, Chrissy tipped Scott a whopping 516 percent of her bill. The waitress said that she wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary, but was floored when she got a $1,000 tip for the $200-ish bill.Scott shared some of the money with her coworkers and used the rest to repair her family car.
We can't believe the tip @chrissyteigen left this waitress at Dayton-area @Outback steakhouse. #BloomingOnions4All… https://t.co/g2kkrfTe9F— Austin Fast🎙 (@Austin Fast🎙)1509706146.0
