Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Today was busy. But it wasn't the busy where it slows at close. No. It seemed to get busier at close. Mostly because there were 3 tables that came in right near close and ordered over $100 worth of sushi, which threw the sushi bar into a little bit of a tizzy. All day, however, the sushi bar was getting slammed with sushi lunches, Special Chirashi's & Bentos. The kitchen got killed in spurts too. I hopped back there to help expo during the hectic times. Servers seemed to maintain, and things weren't really all that bad until the last 30 minutes. I think mostly because everyone expected it to slow down, but it never did.

We had a catering order today which I think put an additional strain on the sushi bar as well as Mr.Tran was training. So just a bunch of things. But no comps due to the fact, so that was good.

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Ruthy exhibited carelessness and started pouring an asahi and walked away, therefore causing it to overflow onto the floor. Camacho caught it and Ruthy cleaned it up, but careless none the less.
-Mandy got a little flustered and thought she lost B1's credit card, when in actuality,they never gave it to her. Also in the end, I caught her restocking with the catering crate, that I specifically put a note next to saying not to use. When I told her not to use it and asked if she read the note she said no. Ironically she also didn't read the note on the coffee maker that said not to put the lid on the pot...something about Mandy and not reading notes. Not sure what it is. But it's kind of frustrating.

Any VIP's in?

Comps& Void Detail:
voided a few pieces we started 86ing at the end of service. Only one comp, Server Misring, though it wasn't a misring, it was an error. Mandy was grabbing her Chirashi Tokusen to take to B1 and knocked the Botan Ebi. We remade it for him (this was the same table she thought she lost the credit card on) but he didn't get it until they were ready to pay. I took 20% off his Chirashi.
