Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
It was a busy late pop as expected, but it took a long time to hit. We were pretty slow until about 1 and then it hit all at once. I think people were getting a late start on the day after last night's UT game. Several folks sporting orange today. Seems like students were bringing their parents to Kome. We were on a 45 min wait by 120, and sat the last table on the wait at 2:05. Kitchen got hit pretty hard, but ticket times were decent. Sushi ticket times were solid. Had one issue with a customer sending back an Una-don. It had an unusually large amount of bones in it. Alex and I both agreed it was abnormal. We offered a new order, but the guest decided to go with a salmon box instead. No other issues.

Hoping for better sales today. Wish we would have gotten an earlier start with the rush. Looking at last years blog we hit a wait at noon, and sat the last table at 230.

R&M needs:
-Large rice cooker is having problems keeping the rice warm. I guess it makes rice fine, but doesn't keep it warm. I guess it's been happening for a couple of days, but I hadn't read anything in the blog about it. Kayo, I was told we got that from Daruma. Does it have a warranty or should we buy a new one?
