Who worked: Mandy, Camacho, Lindsey, Grace, Sophia CL, Patrick and Gabe hosting, Hiroe FR and John SA

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Fairly smooth for the most part. Things picked up about 45 minutes after open. Kept a slight wait up until about 8:30. Kitchen got hit with a big party room order. Scott asked that MOD or someone give him a heads up about when larger parties are sat. They were our only large party and they kept Lindsey running around. They seemed to be a little impatient about their 15 minute rolls times. Turns out their kids were just annoying even them and they were ready to leave. Lindsey wrapped things up for them. I cut Mandy at 8:30pm, Camacho at 9pm and Lindsey at 9:30pm. A miscommunication on cuts and floor charts left one of our last tables without being greeted for a good while. Sophia stepped in, took over and turned up the charm. I shot them some Kome bucks and things seemed pretty well smoothed over. Grace and Sophia closed us down.

Specials: 11 snow crab, 13 iwashi, 5 tsub-wasa, 6 river shrimp special.
I meant to mention this on Sunday but the drink specials aren't showing up on the beverage sales report. Either that or I'm looking in the wrong place.

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Beorn stomped a sizable adult rat in the dish pit at about 9:15pm. Quick reflexes and a killer instinct on that one. But it is alarming that the rats are coming out in a high traffic area during service. Maybe it was poisoned?
-Gabe has his TABC, and we had people asking for drinks, so I showed him how to do a few things. I also let him know about keeping the party room set up at all times for 6 people. He needs a little help in following direction, but takes correction fairly well when he understands more of the bigger picture.


Any VIP's in? Rachel and Carlos, friends of Grace, friends of Camacho. Leary with Lindsey and her parents.

Comps& Void Detail: $30 in customer kome bucks,
$8 recovery on a hot sake. Mandy took out and served a hot sake glass that still had soft-serve residue caked to the inside of it. I guess someone took out a sample of kabocha-softo for someone to try.
*Ecard tips do in fact show up cc tips in server's check-outs
Employee day off for Leary.


R&M needs: I spent some time working on the closing side work for PM shift. I'm leaving a draft on the desk for review, but perhaps we can try it tomorrow night?

86'd items/ need more:I emailed Kaila about getting more Texas Sake before the weekend. we sold more in only a few days than we did all last week.

We apparently only have about 4 kid's kitchen platters. We had to improvise and use bento boxes for one table.
