Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Started busy, had about 8 tables right from the start, plus an 11 top in the party room. Then it died down a little around 1:15, but then a 16 top walked in. Half children half adults and I put them at B1/2 and then B4, 5, 6. They were mostly staning around B1 for a while until the food came out and then they sat down and ate. but that put us back on a wait and had a few tables waiting 25 mintues. That rush pushed us well into 2pm and I made cuts around 2:15, down to 2, then cut down to just Jason as 2:45. Honestly I wasn't expecting the business we got today due to last years sales and reading the notes about how slow it was. Tonight is supposed to be busy per LY standards but we'll see. Maybe lunch and dinner flipped.

Specials?

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
*Mandy handled the initial 3 table rush very well and delegated what she needed.
*Ixchel is doing better food running. Though she did stab a gyoza ticket for B6 that had not yet been run. Luckily i was back there, saw her do it, and when she came back from running another item asked her about it. Still needs to be aware on what she is doing back there


Any VIP's in?
Several familiar faces in early on in the service. Family that always ends up sitting at A5: dad and 3 kids (usually the mom is there too, but not today), Then an older gentleman and his young child that sit at the sushi bar, then the couple that bough $1000 in GC's on their anniversary last week. As well as Meg, her daughter and a friend.

Comps& Void Detail:
FNF for Alley & Vince's GF. Guest DNL for Vince's GF (she ordered the Alone together, but meant the Endo in NY), other than that, I don't recall any other comps
