*NOTE:  A couple of ladies stayed for a while after we closed smoking cigarettes outside.  Kristen sold them a bottle of Sake a quarter to 10.  They've been outside since.  They're still here and so are we.  Elizabeth let them know that we are closing up.  They poured the rest of the sake into their glasses and some on the table.



Weather: It is just a beautiful day out.  Low 90's

Special events?:


Who worked: Girls night!  Kate, Lindsey, Stephanie, Grace and Krystin.  Cindy as host.  Erika (SA) and Hiroe (FR)

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Had a really steady start. Went on a wait arund 6:15 and stayed on one until 9ish when we cut the doubles (Grace and Lindsey).  Lots of food rang on wrong tables tonight.  Stephanie caught her mistake in time.  Unfortunately I took wrong food to Grace's and also Kate's guests tonight.  Fortunately!  I table talked both and we realized together that it was not correct.  Food was delivered correctly.  No harm No foul.  We will continue to talk about slowing down and ringing in food correctly and also closing out checks the properly
Stayed 3 on until the end

Specials:
  Escolar
  King salmon belly
  Japanese potato salad
  King salmon box
  blue fin
 

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Erika started off with a little more pep in her step tonight but started slowing down about half way through the rush.  She also doesn't seem at all comfortable holding a tray.  This probably isn't helping.  Will continue to monitor her and help out as needed
Stephanie did a great job tonight and offered help in her downtime
Cindy wasn't feeling well so we sent her home early.  Around 9

Any VIP's in?  Older couple that come in every other Tuesday were here.  

Comps& Void Detail:
  1 birthday dessert
  FNF for Ben, Eliz's mortgage broker
  Voided a Love For Sale (misring; wasn't made)
  Voided 2 Miso soups.  Were never ran.  Couple were too full at that point to have them but were not upset about it

R&M needs: For some reason the mix inside the soft serve machine was clumping tonight.  We had to disassemble the machine to clean it.  Maybe the ratio of mix to water was off

86'd items/ need more:  King salmon belly and Farm Salad
