Prince William Takes Customer Booking At Indian Restaurant In Birmingham. WATCH

Prince William of Britain helped out an Indian restaurant in Birmingham by taking a phone reservation from an unsuspecting customer on Thursday. Williams and wife Kate were on a trip to Birmingham in central England when the heir to the British throne visited the family-run restaurant Indian Streatery and took the call from someone seeking a booking for two people, Reuters reported.

After checking the location with the owners of the restaurant, William spoke to the caller about when the table would be free and if it would suit their timing.

"What name is it under?" the prince said as he concluded the conversation, without revealing his own name to the caller. "See you at quarter past two."

Prince William's office later said on Twitter: "Hope we told this customer to come to the right place...!"

While taking the call, one can see Kate standing beside Prince William who is surrounded by the restaurant staff.
