Thursday PM Recap

Written By: Leary

A few notes for FOH managers:
-Lets make sure we are swapping out 1s & 5s from a daily cash deposits into the change bag. Also if we are low on change at the end of a shift, please blog about, or text me.
-We should treat the office like a section. When we are done with a shift let's make sure everything is put back in place, trash is emptied, alcohol put away, and if you eat let's give the desk a quick wipe down to prevent stickiness and attracting any unwanted critters.
-I noticed the P&L Sales, Sales Goals, & Covers/PPA were wiped clean last week. Unfortunately Excel will occasional crash. I think it's best going forward if we get in the habit of constantly saving our work, and closing the P&L and checkout sheets at the end of every night.
-I sent a not out to the servers to make sure the soft serve tray is being inserted correctly, but let's make sure to check that on our opening walk through.

Thanks for your help and cooperation.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
It was steady, but not as busy as last week. Slowly got a wait by 630. Hit a 30-45 minute wait at the peak. Most of the night it was just a handful of tables waiting. Had several 5-tops, and a 7-top sat in the dinning room. It was good flow of business, and the servers made everything run really smoothly. The kitchen got hit with a lot of tickets around 7. Had a couple of longer tickets, but it didn't cause any issues with the tables. The longest I believe was a 30 minute tonpei-yaki that was thought to be a buta kimchi. The printer ink was a light so we changed the ribbon so tickets would print clearer. Everything ran smoothly after the initial wave. Sushi bar tickets times were solid. Off the wait at 925 and cut Kelly and first Host. Went 2 on at 940.    

Specials:
Japanese Uni- 8
Snow Crab- 10
Tsubugai- 4
Salmon Katsu- 2

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-John took my notes about slowing down during food running shifts to heart. He was much more calm, controlled, and collected even during the pop. I'm glad to see the improvement.
-Renee and Tori did a decent job at the host stand tonight. Their main focus area would be needing to communicate with each other better.
-Kelly seemed pretty out of it. She told me she was on her third double this week so it makes sense. Had a few misrings, but no comps.

Any VIP's in?
