Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:Lunch was pretty slow. Not much to report really. Cut Kristen at 1pm, Kelly at 1:15pm, Just Johnny at 1:45pm
Dinner: 1st hour was pretty slow. Not much of a happy hour turn out. One of the tables that did come in early, sat for over 2 hours. They treated Sayo very well. Things picked up at 6pm and we were on wait just before 6:30pm. Went off wait at about 9:00pm. I cut Krystin and Sayo at 8:45 and 89:pm respectively. I cut Camacho at 9:30. Aside from more DNL's than I've seen in a long time, a pretty smooth night.

Specials:

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):Chisato had a question about her login information for the payroll website. She says Elizabeth sent or was supposed to send her login reset info? I'm not sure.
Will was pretty slow moving at lunch. It was a slow lunch and he still couldn't or wouldn't keep up with things. Maybe he felt he didn't need to move at a normal pace. I mentioned it to John. John said he'd talk with him.
John also mentioned Scott seemed pretty sharp and kept things running smoothly in the kitchen. They first time I went back there today he was learning the different plates and bowls for service and tonight he was seemingly capably expo'ing. When he wasn't doing that I saw him with Matt almost always.
I'm feeling like I can actually rely on Miriam a little. I'm not giving anyone new much slack beyond their primary duties, but I needed a couple of small little gopher favors from Miriam, and she was on it and back to her position in no time.

Any VIP's in?Ben- Elizabeth's broker.
 Layla? Pretty sure that is her name. She comes in with her kids sometimes. She had a group of 8 with her tonight- 4 kids. They waited a few minutes over their quote time because of some campers. Not long and they were very understanding.
Some familiar faces during lunch.

Comps& Void Detail: a few DNL's at dinner. Two different tables, but both in Naoto's section said they didn't like the rolls they ordered. One was a go-go roll- they didn't like the texture. The other was an alone together- they said it tasted off. Naoto and I both tried it. Seemed okay. They said it tasted fishy. Maybe one of the three fish inside wasn't as fresh as they'd like?
Sayo had a table say our ikura tasted off too. Kazu said he made the batch today. Offered another piece, they declined. DNL.
Voided 2 softo- 86'd at the end of the night.
Training lunch for Naoto.
 Bday dessert.
FNF for Kristen's friend.

We were 86'd hon maguro tonight, but lot's of tables wanted a sashimi sampler. I had the server's ring in Sampler's as $18 open sushi each and we made them the kihada maguro instead. That was the old menu price for the same fish so it made since to me. I was told we just 86'd it last night? We sold several samplers I saw.

R&M needs:

86'd items/ need more:Crayons, togarashi shakers.
