Who worked: Kate, Mandy, Sayo, Clair (CL), John (SA), Kelly (FR), Cindy training Lou as host

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Busy Friday lunch. On a wait by 12:30, which stayed that way right up until close. Wait times were never more than 20 minutes. The kitchen did their best at keeping cool, literally and figuratively since the hood vent didn't kick back on until about. I bought the kitchen some Mexican cokes and Josh a beer for hanging in there.

Sushi bar was backed up for the last hour. A table ordered hotate carpaccio but ended up not wanting it due to the long ticket time. A woman at S2 recieved a sashimi lunch with frozen tuna. The sushi bar was too busy to accommodate sending the woman a comped piece of nigiri and the customer had noticed this as well, so I ended up giving her 50% recovery to smooth things over.

I didn't cut anyone today that's how busy it was. Great team work and no real mistakes made by kitchen, sushi, or FOH staff.

Specials:

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): -Cindy did a great job training Lou on her first day.

-Lou is very sweet and a fast learner. More to come as she continues her training.

-Mandy got bogged down a few times and had a hard time picking up her food from the sushi bar. Not really sure why as the hosts did a great job pacing how tables were sat and we had 4 on all day.

Any VIP's in? Cole from Cheer Up's

R&M needs: Petrocelli came to fix the hood vent this afternoon. About 30 minutes after fixing it, it shut down again and he came back to look at it right this very moment
