Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Busy right from the start. We were nearly full by 5:45, but stayed steady enough until 7pm when we went on a wait. Lots of familiar friendly faces in tonight. Ticket times were all good. Had a 25 minute Gyoza for my friends at A8, but everything else seemed to come out timely. Had a little miscommunication about specials tonight- I was told we were running the tempura okra but about 45 minutes into service we were 86 it. Had a few tables already order it and had to tell them we didn't have it, but offered them temp.green beans. No takers. The rest of the night was smooth. We were sitting at about a 30 minute wait until about 8:30

Specials?
Shishito Peppers 11
Shrimp.Potato Croq  6
Tsk Set 7
All Star 11
Smokin' Sash 8

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Dusten was helpful in prebussing and bussing other sections
-I'd like to see  everyone take a water pitcher with them when running sushi bar food- still saw a lot of empty water glasses tonight. When Miho was running some rolls to her table, I threw a pitcher in her other hand to get them in the habit of doing this.
-Cindy did well on her first night solo. She was aware of tables getting up, and able to get to tables quickly. Great job tonight.

R&M needs?:
ice machine stopped producing halfway through the night, then right at the end it started producing again. I had ordered ice around 7:30 but it didn't arrive until almost 9:30. I told them I would still take 2 bags to get us up and going

The Pavers will be here tomorrow at 8:30am to start laying the cement in the back area near the kitchen. Just FYI.  We moved all of the chemicals into the dish area and a few in dry storage.
