Who worked: Lunch: Naoto, Lindsey, Krystin, Johnny CL, Erica SA, Junko H and Chisato FR
Dinner: Naoto, Lindsey, Sayo, Camacho, Sophia CL, Samara/Jason H, Hiroe FR and Miho SA
Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Lunch: pretty slow. Never really filled up. I cut Lindsey at 12:50, Krystin at 1:15 and the Naoto (he traded cuts w/ Krystin) at 1:40pm.
Dinner: Dinner was lively. We started out slow but stead and by 7pm or so we were on nearly an hour wait. Samara and Jason got swarmed with drink orders, so I stepped in and help fill in blanks and make dranks. Off wait by 9pm so I cut Samara, Lindsey and Naoto. Cut Camacho at 9:20pm
No ticket time issues all day. Great job!
Specials:4 salmon collar, 22 hon-maguro, 9 all star sets, 4 king salmon bozes
3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Now that Joel is gone, Jason Clarke is on about being promoted to server again, so be prepared for that I guess. He struggled a bit to keep up with drink orders, but in his defense there were a lot.Cocktail sold over $200 tonight. He stayed focused, but just needs to practice.
I had no issues with anyone's performance all day. Everyone handled themselves very professionally. Lindsey and Naoto were great. Camacho worked his magic with the regulars. Johnny and Sophia shut things down nicely and the support staff had great hustle.
Any VIP's in? Dorcy and her partner (name?), Japanese guy that usually I see at the sushi bar for dinner in for lunch today. Usually alone, usually orders 3 saba among other things. The Coopers. Nathan aka 'Nay-Nay.' Steve's roommate, Diego (old Ramen guy from when I started here), Lunch regulars came in for dinner- Asian couple- he's always wearing black scrubs. They brought their kid with them today. Jeremy.
Comps& Void Detail: Lunch A1 got up and left right after they placed their order. There seemed to be a disagreement between mother and daughter they couldn't work out in public so they took off. Naoto stopped their food from being made- voided yoshizo, spooky, kayaku, and a sushi lunch.
30 in kome bucks at lunch. Voided an alone together- guest meant to order bento- no food waste there!, FNF discount for Midori's husband. 25 Kome bucks at dinner. Voided an Asahi- the machine was off. We got it up and running again, but had to 86 it for about an hour. Just comped an uni nigiri. DNL. Table ordered 3 pieces, one for each of them. The pieces sat on the table for at least an hour before they ate them.
R&M needs:
86'd items/ need more: we ran out of candles. soy sauce got funky on us... noticed chucks and film on top. had servers dump soy sauce and wash the containers tonight. Shouldn't need to be done tomorrow.
I meant to talk about soy sauce before, but since we have just had a issue with soy sauce let me use this opportunity. I remembered when we started ( opened ) we used to put all table soy sauce in the fridge at the end of the night. Please start to do it from tomorrow, being strange weather and wet, it can make soy sauce bad pretty quick, please add this as new server closing duty.
ReplyDeleteAlso I just ordered tea candles, it should be here on Fri. Meantime I will find some for tomorrow morning. Please also remind hosts to let us know if we need something soon before totally running out.
I have took 6 asahi glasses out this morning, we do have more, but the problem is that we run out of it on Tue only, and we do not have enough space to store more than how many we have there now. If you can make more space, there are few more boxes on the top of server station.
