(FOX NEWS) - Brianna Siegel served a couple on Tuesday evening when they came to where she was waitressing at Bar Louie in Woodbridge. After the meal was over, the two paid their $20 bill and handed Siegel an envelope with instructions to not open it until she got home.

"I've been in the food industry all my life…it's my favorite thing to do," she said.
