Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch was a bit of a bust. Sushi bar never came close to filling up, and we still had a couple open tables at our busiest point. Went 3 on at 1230, 2 on at 1, and 1 on at 140. Cut Host at 130. I wanted to cut sooner, but was thinking we might get a late pop. Ticket times were fine.

Had a couple of issues with Tre being a little today. Sent a burnt Chk Kastu Donburi, Also sent out a Buta kimchi, but had left 1/2 the pork still in the pan. The customer pointed asked why there was so little meat in it. I went back to ask about it, and Shiloh saw the pork still in the pan. Jersey followed up with him.

Dinner was mellow. We had a one big pop that came all at once. Went from having a few tables open to a 45 minute wait in 10 minutes. Lots of 2 tops, and lots of campers. We got through the pop just fine, and came off the wait at 830. 2 on at 845. Got a second wave after 9. Sophia got the bulk of it, but handled it fine with a little help. Couple tables after 930. Cut Ruthy at 930. Ticket times were solid. Sushi Bar and Kitchen were unchallenged.
