A restaurant owner said his heart broke when a mum and her four kids ordered one plate of small pancakes off the children's menu to share between them.
Joe Worrall, 34, one of the owners of Blackdoor Bar & Bistro, in West Derby, was working on Friday, June 2, when the family came and sat down inside.
The mum started asking for more forks and the family shared the food, which was just two pancakes, Liverpool ECHO reports. When Joe asked why they were sharing one little plate the mum told him she was "struggling really bad with the cost of living " but wanted to do something nice for her children who were off school.
