Johnny Depp: not such a ‘Public Enemy’
Oh to have been in waiter Mohammaed A. Sekhani’s shoes last week!

It seems that Johnny Depp and a few other people involved in ‘Public Enemies‘ were here in Chicago last week for the opening of the movie. They then headed to Gibson’s Steakhouse — a Chicago institution on Rush Street in the Near North side — to party down, arriving a little before midnight, and staying on till past 2:30am.
To reward “Mo” for his excellent service and patience into the wee hours of the morning, it seems that Johnny Depp gave him a $4000 tip — only $200 less than the bill itself!
My hat’s off to you, Mr Depp! That’s waaaaay more than the 15-20% suggested amount! (I wonder — are other celebrities going to be cussing you out for setting too high expectations among other waitstaff who wait upon celebrities now?)
