Restaurant owner gets hilarious delivery note from dieter begging for secrecy: ‘Knock quietly!’

A restaurant owner in the UK couldn’t help but share the hilarious secret note he received — and now, the hush-hush message meant only for the delivery driver is going viral around the world.

Waseem Banaras, the owner of Munchies Eston, had to laugh when he received a rare but honest delivery note.

“Knock quietly, I’m supposed to be on a diet,” the receipt’s message read.

The struggling dieter had ordered a Texas BBQ personal pizza, a waffle with double chocolate ice cream and chocolate sauce and a Dr. Pepper at 6:05 p.m. on Dec. 11.

Banaras shared that the Just Eat delivery driver did follow through with the request.

“The delivery driver definitely did follow the request,” the shop owner said.

“We couldn’t possibly betray the customer’s trust.”

The owner of the to-go fast food shop thought the request was so hilarious, he posted a photo of the receipt online to share some laughs.
