Blind TikTok musician moved to tears by restaurants kind gesture
A blind musician has revealed how kind restaurant staff moved her to tears when they spelled out the words ‘Happy Birthday’ in braille on a plate, using melted chocolate.
Natalie Te Paa, a singer-songwriter originally from Auckland, New Zealand who lives in the UK, received the touching gesture while on a birthday night out with a friend at Luciano, Gino D’Acampo’s London restaurant.
Natalie’s friend filmed the birthday girl as she discovered the treat in a touching video that has been viewed more than 11million times and received 3.2million likes.

Sharing the video on Instagram, Natalie wrote: ‘To the entire team at Luciano by Gino D’Acampo, you moved us to tears last night! Thank you for going above and beyond to make me feel special on my birthday. Love, Natalie.’
The video shows waiting staff carry the cake over to Natalie’s table. Placing a plate on the table, the waiter says: ‘We wanted to wish you a happy birthday.’
Natalie’s friend guides Natalie’s hand to the plate. The musician then runs her fingers over the words.
As she realises what the chef has written on the plate, she says: ‘No freaking way. They did not. Are you kidding me? You guys are amazing! Oh my gosh! Are you kidding me?! That is insane! Thank you so much!’
The singer/songwriter said the sweet message from restaurant staff proved that ‘despite how broken the world is right now, true kindness still exists’
