Johnny Depp is an awesome tipper

Johnny Depp is my new favorite celeb. I love celebrities who remember the little people and Depp remembered his waiter to the tun of $4,000.

Mohammed A . Sekhani a waiter at Chicago’s legendary steakhouse Gibsons, told RadarOnline.com: “Johnny and his party arrived just after 11:30 p.m. at the restaurant and requested a private room. He had visited our restaurant several times before while he was filming ‘Public Enemies’ and he promised me that he would return after the premiere.”

The group had appetizers while they waited for their meal, including Depp’s favorite, clams baked with garlic, pepper and cheese.

“He also ordered some $500 bottles of Italian wine and he was in good spirits throughout the evening chatting with Mr. Mann and Miss Cotillard. I have worked with a lot of stars like Sean Connery and Robert De Niro but Johnny Depp is my favorite. He is a very soft spoken guy who is very charming and sweet – when I wait for him he doesn’t like to be too fussed over and is not in any way demanding,” the waiter, who had served Depp before said.

“Because he had visited us before he calls me ‘Mo’ and I know exactly the way he likes to be treated. He may be one of the most famous actors in the world but he is a very ‘humble guy’ and a really cool dude. Obviously, I was delighted with his tip but he has always been very generous every time that he has visited us here at Gibsons. When the party left around 2:30 a.m. he smiled and told me that he would return – they were a great group of people.”

Damned straight. I’d have called him all sorts of great words for way less than $4,000.
