We hope she enjoyed her burger and want to appreciate Noida Botanical Garden Metro Station restaurant’s Mr Dheeraj for being a kind king. This has further inspired us to serve everyone with just as much heart!”

The restaurant even held a felicitation ceremony appreciating the employee and shared the pictures on their Twitter handle.
