Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
We got a pretty good lunch pop around noon, but it was only 1 push and by 1pm it started clearing out. I cut Lindsey and by 1:30 there were only 4 tables left so I cut Alex, and let Johnny fly solo for the last 30 minutes. He got about 5 more tables in that time and did a great job.

Only had one hiccup and it was an issue with Krysten not reading the ticket correctly before running the food. She delivered a kara age to a woman who ordered the tofu steak. The woman was biting into the kara age and then noticed it was chicken and spit it out. When we brought her the tofu steak she was very understanding and not at all upset. Thank goodness. I talked to Krysten about the importance of reading the ticket before running it.

Also had a grumpy man in around 11:50am. He ordered a half kara age, 3 pieces of nigiri and a gyudon. He was still eating his nigiri when his gyudon came out and he sent it back saying he wasn't done eating. We had to remake it for him since he wasn't "ready" for it until later. He left without incident, but just threw a kink in the wheel

Any VIP's in?
