LY Dinner Sales: 4512
TY Dinner Sales: 8576 (<--doesn't reflect catering sales)
I put the Swim Team catering sales into the checkout spreadsheet, but adjusted it so there was no tip-outs calculated from it. They paid cash for their meal and the catering. I'm paperclipping that cash separate from the other deposit, but both are located in the Sunday slot.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Busy night. Typical Sunday early rush combined with 3 day holiday weekend business. We were on a wait most of the night- from just before 6pm until about 9:50pm. I made cuts at about 9:30 when there were only a few small parties waiting. Had a takoyaki go out that was still frozen in the center. This was just after the initial big rush, so possibly a lot of fry tickets and a lower oil temp was the cause. Still a good idea to monitor the oil temperature regularly.
In addition to the Swim team we had 2x 8-tops walk in at about the same time. One was seated much sooner than the other, but both were well within quote times. Overall it was a smooth night with minimal mistakes. Guests were all pretty happy tonight. Commendable performance by the entire staff.
3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Had to shoo Clair away from the drink well a couple of times tonight. Once she was conversing with customers she knew sitting at 103/104... for a whiiillle. Rather than running her food while she socialized, I went over to the bar and let her know she had sushi up. Another time she was waiting for a drink she'd forgotten to ring in. I told her I'd run it when it came up and to please go elsewhere. The same couple she was talking with earlier were still there.
Kelly Dobbins does a little bit of corner cutting here and there when she is weeded. I noticed a couple of short-stacks of dirty dishes, once at the front server station and once at the soy sauce station. Both times I watched to see who would pick them up. Both times it was her catching up to herself. i didn't observe her too closely Saturday night, but she was very helpful while closing with me. Maybe just an issue of needing a tray or better time management?
Not sure who the weak link is on the sushi rolls, but I noticed a few that didn't look too great. Peter helped to repair them.
Kazu brought to my attention that John H, our lunch closer did not take the kitchen rice out as part of his closing duties today. Something to mention for him to consider if he wants to be given the heavier shifts.
Any VIP's in? Japanese Swim Team.
Dennis and Sarah Ann (Roosevelt Room)
Brent- I think he worked at Kome or Daruma in the past?
Camacho's buddy- Director of Museum of Human Achievement. Annie is also friends with him.
Comps& Void Detail: 2 eringi- Clair somehow doesn't know we haven't had eringi for months. A table ordered two pieces and got the sansai. They weren't crazy about not getting what they were expecting. Server misring. Can we just pull the button entirely?
FNF 2x King Salmon for Dennis, Roosevelt Room owner.
FNF 2 Zato pieces for Camacho's (also Annie's) friend.
Takoyaki kitchen error- still frozen
Server misring Miso ramen. Table ordered Vegan Miso- this is one of those things that needs to be clarified by the server in the moment with the table. Like Tonkatsu or Tonkotsu, Go-go or Ko-ko. Second time Zayn made this same mistake last Sunday.
Owner Comp for Swim team drinks.
2 separate bday taiyaki's
$15 Kome bucks from Grand opening.
