Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Started slow, but eventually filled up everywhere except for sushi bar. We went on a wait around 12:40 and we off the wait by 1pm.  Had a few hiccups: Server Error from Johnny with a misring of Summertime roll instead of Spooky. Luckily we were able to resell it. so no harm there. Then there was the soy sauce incident. I have already emailed Kayo about this incident. but basically S9 picked up the soy sauce container from its lid and it spilled all over him and his lunch, leaving him soaked in soy sauce. He immediately got up and left before I could intercept him. Waiting for the Yelp about it...
Other than that, it was a smooth lunch. Got off the wait and cut down to Clair and Johnny by 1:10. By 1:30 it was dying pretty hard, so I cut down to just Clair at 1:40. I don't think she got one more table after that. I had all checkouts in to me by 2:05. Yikes. Slow.

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Johnny got a big rush in his section around the wait time, got two 4-tops and a 5, but delegated his tasks accordingly.

It's nice to have Junko back. She is solid at the stand

Clair was better today, considering her recent flubs and the notes I've been reading about her. She seemed happy and on her game.

Any VIP's in?
Tara and the other guy (they LOVE A1- I am drawing a blank on his name), another guy that usually dines alone, but had a companion today.

Comps& Void Detail:
Recovery to the sushi lunch for Clair's Soy Soaked S9, Voided Summertime, Johnny re-rang under correct table,

R&M needs?:
Yesterday I ordered a new water spigot for the service station. It should arrive sometime this week. Vince and I talked about having ABC coming out sometime this week to un-ghetto-fy the new sink in the back, so I asked him to also have them install this new piece. It doesn't have a handle instead it's a push nozzle. Hopefully will work well. It was $80, compared to the one I found at Acemart for $250.

86'd items/ need more?
Waiting on Red Maple and Summer Snow due to our forgetful new Favorite Brands rep (I will discuss this with some Fav Brands people when I see them on Thursday at the tasting)
