Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
The usual sunday waiters- hanging around out front until we swing our doors open. We filled up around 12:40 and were on a wait for about an hour- about 20 minute waits were the quotes. Had several walk in 6-tops, then a walk in 10 top, and then a walk in 12 top and a walk in 6 top after that. it's like everyone in Austin was like "it's so nice out today, let's all go out to eat....together!!!". Luckily the flow of it was manageable and when the 12 top came in the back B's were clearing out, so we put together B4-B8 and sat them within a few minutes. Ticket times were a little shakey at the beginning getting hit right away- mostly with the Bento Boxes. Krystin sold 6 to one table, and Stephanie had a bunch too. Kyrstin, Stephanie and Joel all won the Bento contest. We sold 23 Bentos today! Jersey also said Randy got hit hard at teishoku station in the beginning too. But after the first hour everyone seemed to find their groove (once again) and we were movin' and a shakin'.

Had a complaint that the miso ramen was too salty, even after she poured a cup of hot water in it. Might have just been a personal preference.


3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
*Grace did a good job, once again, at the host stand. Just needs to get a little faster turning the tables over once they are set.
*Kaori was our SA today and did wonderfully.
*Jason food running did a great job making his rounds after he would drop food off, to pick up any empty plates on his way back in.

Any VIP's in?

Comps& Void Detail:
Kome Bucks for Joel, Stephanie & Krystin for Bento sales.  Makani discounts

R&M needs?:

86'd items/ need more?
Diet Coke
small lids for togo container ramikins
It seems that the new paper bags we got are just a hair smaller than the other ones and now the small Styrofoam containers don't fit. Just FYI for next order.
I ordered more china markers and also pie containers for the cheesecake- Jersey and I discussed- because they are constantly ruined in between the plates.
We need more Ramen soup spoons please
Iced Tea- Leary will pick some up on his way in tomorrow.
