The popular California-Israeli restaurant Pomella at the bottom of Piedmont Avenue owned by Mica Talmor received a surprise $10,000 from Good Morning America sponsor the Coca-Cola Company to share among its employees. Talmor opened the restaurant just as the pandemic hit and, like many restaurants, has been able to keep going by pivoting to online orders. Talmor said in an Instagram post that GMA contacted her around Thanksgiving. Pomella kept the gift a secret from employees until the December holidays.
