ALL:
New Desserts launch Friday!
Regarding Bloktoberfest package sales: our sales system requires us to set days/times when the pre-sale items are available to be purchased. The system does not allow for the selection of a future date, just specific days of the week. Due to this, it shows that the packages are available on Friday at 4pm and Saturday at 12:30. The language now states that the packages are available in the Bloktoberfest tent, but folks may still come into the restaurant. Please encourage guests to come to the main entrance at the tent, and they will see signs to direct them as to where to claim their packages.
Don’t forget to sweep the line and window area that’s visible by customers frequently.
Use the short third pans for silverware, not the deep ones- we will run out of silverware.
Please be intentional when placing dirty glassware in bar racks. Slide the glasses all of the way back neatly to allow for more glasses to go in the rack.
Don’t place the black mat outside of the kitchen swing door over the hump, it absorbs too much water. We will get a pad for under it to make it not slip.
FOH:
New task added to shift change: change the ice water upstairs for sauces at shift change.
Ketchup will be stored in downstairs walk-in at close.
Leaf blow mid-day during shift change, just keep customers in mind and avoid their areas if seated outside.
Just a reminder, all outside alcohol must be finished or moved inside by 11 p.m. Also, minors cannot be sat in the restaurant after 10:30 p.m. on weekends.
Try to bus all downstairs dishes in the server bus station area- not directly to dish to keep them more organized. Also, if you do dump something in the ketchup sink, please no straws or anything that can block that drain.
Please write the local eats on the specials board or at least a blurb saying, “Ask your server about our local eats special!”
Reminder, recycle newspapers at close.
At happy hour time and also late night when there is no host, please communicate with the kitchen when three or more tables have come in at once so they are aware.
We have thought about the second mop for FOH closing and decided to stick with one mop for now. As long as duties are divided fairly, the person not mopping should have something else to do, mopping upstairs can be done sooner, and we would have to get a second bucket for a second mop. P.S. You do not need to slop mop and you do not need to mop the game room every night, please refer to closing sheet for game room mop nights and let management know if you have questions.
BOH:
Weigh out smoked chicken periodically for portion control.
There will be a new procedure for pasta H20 this week that we are experimenting with.
Just a reminder that garlic bread procedure is ½ cup of garlic to 1 lb. of butter.
