A restaurant owner in Louisville treated his employees to a trip to Las Vegas.

As most restaurants and businesses have remained closed due to the pandemic, many people have lost their jobs owing to the lockdown against COVID-19.

A Japanese eatery called ‘Ramen House’, situated in Louisville in Kentucky shared a photo on Facebook where the employees are seen at the airport to go on a trip together. The owner of the eatery,  Jonathan Ham, decided to shut down his restaurant for a week to give his staff a much-deserved break.

The caption read, “Sorry, we are closed this week. our employees have worked so hard and diligently through all the crazy times we went through. They deserve a break. So we’ve decided to take them to Vegas. We will return next week during normal business hours.”

Restaurant owner Jonathan Ham asserted that nearly a dozen employees went on the trip and that he paid for their plane tickets and lodging. The employees who couldn’t go received bonuses.
