PM: Dinner service was mellow, Randall was able to do Ramen while I took care of everything else. Ticket times are usually pretty good during weekday night shifts. 2 Staff members that stood out (why/how) : Hayden seems to become more and more solid member of the crew. I really like his attitude, and his enthusiasm to work hard in our shop R&M needs : Sushi sesame seed shaker for salt and pepper shaker on wok station in Ramen side. Fine mesh china cap. 86'd items/ need more : We did not 86 any items at all today. Aki is doing great so far, but he keeps having problems reading the noodle cooker, his water is either too hot and boiling over and sometimes its cold as well. Our prep cooks ar...

Written By: Drew Who worked : Ramen 1: Eric Trejo Ramen 2: Joey Cook Sushi 1: Spencer Brown Sushi 2: Andrew Dzib Flow of Business and Ticket Times : -Today was nice and steady. There was alot of prep to get done today and Rika and Shiho handled it very well. -So Trejo noticed today that 3 boxes of noodles got left out today. Had to throw them away. But he ordered some back ups from minamoto who is doing an emergency delivery because they messed up our order today. They had brought us only 1 case instead of 3. -Trejo said that Friday we ordered too many chicken thighs. We had 3.5 cases this morning of chicken thighs. So we are gona prep some extra chashu today and tomorrow, so the chicken doesnt go bad. -Amanda talked to me today about possibly doing away with Root Beer, Diet Coke, and Sprite. She said we dont have enough space in the walk in and that we dont sell very much. We also should probably up our pars for ordering Green Tea bottles. -We ran out of Ramen togo labels...

Total Sushi Sold: N/A Who worked : Ramen 1:Eric Ramen 2:Phillip Float:Jacob until 6pm Sushi 1:Jake Sushi 2:Leo Comps and Voids: Fareground Freinds and employees. One Shio ramen was sent back (too fishy) ended up with a Miso ramen. One Shio ramen was remade cold/not picked up. Flow of Business and Ticket Times : Ramen held it down. Ticket times 10-12 minutes even during rush. Sushi got a little bogged down. I suspect because tickets may have been getting held up in POS system. Kept getting error message saying “The following order not sent to KDS: Order #...” 2 Staff members that stood out (why/how) : Kirsten was a lifesaver. Stayed late and did the little things that kept us from going down. Ben was everywhere helping during the push. Leo and Jacob kept gamefaces on throughout the push even though they got pretty well pummeled. R&M needs : Snack boats on order 86...

Written By:Také Who worked : Ramen 1: Jacob Ramen 2: Joey Float: Také Sushi 1: Leo Sushi 2: Jason Flow of Business and Ticket Times : It was busy over all. Sushi bar used 2 containers of sushi rice just for dinner. Lots of rolls and nigiris were mostly taken care of Leo and Jason. When sushi tickets hit 20 min, I jumped in 3rd sushi bar and helped some rolls. Jacob and Joey handled ramen station. Separated spycy bomb makes ramen operation lots easier. There was zero mistake at ramen station. When ramen station got busy, kitchen floor is very slippery and actually I slipped and knocked down one ramen. Kitchen needs large floor mat. Around 9:30pm Fairground dish pit kept asking if there is more dishes coming. Off course we have more dishes coming after service. I decided to wash our own dishes and pans and pots by ourselves in the end of night after dish pit closed. I want to know what time is last call for dish pit. 2 Staff members that stood out (why/how) : Jason is gett...

Written By: Také Who worked : Ramen 1: phill Ramen 2: Joey Float: no one Sushi 1: Také Sushi 2: Jason Starge: Randall/ Jason’s friend Flow of Business and Ticket Times : Very smooth night. Tickets time were good overall. Joey and phill enjoyed making ramen. Good team work. Jason was totally different person from yesterday. Much faster and more cooperative. Sushi bar had some rush at 7pm, and Jason constantly made rolls in decent speed, and his rolls looked much improved. 2 Staff members that stood out (why/how) : R&M needs : 86'd items/ need more :

Written By:Také Who worked : Ramen 1: Daniel Ramen 2: joey Float: Kayo Sushi 1: Také Sushi 2: Jacob Flow of Business and Ticket Times : Ramen 30 min ticket time, and sushi 15 min There was an issue of pilot on noodle cooker. A non is broken. Also Daniel struggled a lot of keeping water boiling. Once water boiled, a water level got very low and it took 15 min to re-boil water after fill up to water level. Kayo found the noodle cooker is connecting to cold water line, and ever time fill with cold water temperature drop down. After lunch rush i re-connected to hot water line. 2 Staff members that stood out (why/how) : Daniel looked very stressful and in every 5 sec he sighed. He needs to eject more good energy. On the other hand, joey is always calm and good energy. Rika, the prep lady is good addition at kitchen. Jacob needs more practice to make rolls. Plus,  his hard shif on Thai-kun trailer makes him look tired. He obviously over working. R&M needs : Gas ...
