Any Special events going on?:SXSW Day 2- Interactive. Apparently the big hype today is #beginatend...it's all I've been seeing on our Kome Twitter feed. It's about social media and marketing. Looks pretty neat.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch: started with the usual line out the front door, filled up around 12:45and we were on a consistent wait until about 2:30. Had several 6 tops walk in and some 5 tops. I don't know if we are running low on small clear soup bowls or if we were just that busy, but I had to make another tower of clear soup set ups around 1:15, and then just a few more set ups again at 2:35. Sales weren't crazy and they definitely weren't the highest sales we've had on a Saturday lunch, but maybe it was just the flow of business that kept us a little behind in the clear soup game. No one ever waited too long for anything today though, and didn't have any fires to put out, so that was nice.


Dinner:Had a line. Went on a wait by 5:50. Stayed on the wait all night until 10pm. It was long. It was intense. We had more 6 tops in tonight than I can count. If I were to venture a guess I would say at least 6. The party room had stacked reservations that turned with no problem. Had a walk in 10-top around 8:30, and the night was one big mess of people, giving the inclement weather outside everyone was huddled up in the lobby and around the host stand. No major issues other than two parties having to wait longer than their hour quote time, but everyone was really understanding. 

Any VIP's in? 
I met a few new regulars tonight, some neighborhood folk. I wrote their names down on a piece of paper that I misplaced. But we had a good array of regulars I know but don't know the names of but chat with regularly enough that I should know their names but it's been too long that I can't ask. Yes, them. 

Comps of note:

R&M needs?:
Text Rodrigo about the hole in the ceiling and he said he can fix it. he didn't say when, but he will.

86'd items/ need more?
We ran out of Bloody Mary mix, so I'll have to get some on my way in tomorrow morning unless anyone is going to HEB before then. Leary, will you be sure to order that from Republic from now on- it's cheaper.
