Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Really mellow lunch. by noon we had only about 4 tables in the entire restaurant. It finally picked up briefly around 1pm but we never went on a wait. Had a 19 minute 1/2 kara Age ticket, but I think Daniel was struggling since Christina called out. The highlight of the day was all the repairs that got made:

Prep sink in the back and the water heater have been fixed. ABC will be back tomorrow AM to install the water filler- he has to drill a hole and make a lot of noise and stuff.

Ice machine was looked at. He cleaned the condenser coils and said it should be fine if the AM kitchen folks can pull the ice from the Right side to allow for it to make more ice. He said it looks like what happens in the morning is that the folks are pulling the ice from the left, and when it piles up on the right it hits the sensor that signals the ice machine to turn off because it's "full" but it's not. There is currently a note on the door, but Vince and Daniel, if you could relay that message to your staff please and thanks.

Rodrigo is getting a new part for our door. The screw is stripped so no matter how many times we tighten it it's going to get loose and thus the door slams.

Specials?
Bentos. Had a contest No one won.

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
*Joel was a great team player this afternoon- when he was just waiting on one table to leave he was helping Kate by pre-bussing her sushi bar for her and also bussed his own tables today.
*Junko is a delight to have back. Always professional
*Sayo was hungover today so I believe that impacted her performance. Also noticed when I was following her with rice for her bento's- she put one bento down in front of a guest upside down (with the protiens on the far side) Thought it was odd.

Any VIP's in?
