ALL:
This weekend we have multiple OSU Athletic Events in town: Friday Women’s Basketball Vs. UCLA @ 7 p.m., Saturday Gymnastics @ 11 a.m., Saturday Men’s Basketball Vs. OREGON DUCKS @ 7 p.m., & Sunday Women’s Basketball Vs USC @ 12 p.m.!!
Bourbon Month Events This Week: Wed. Feb. 14th Caves Bourbon Dinner–Sold Out!!
We are adding a “Malt Vinegar” prompt to the Fish & Fry button. This isn’t meant as another step for the line to grab malt vinegar, but it is a way to ensure that a food runner/server can bring the malt vinegar to the table.
The walk-in door has been lubed, so be careful opening/closing it as it requires much less force now.
FOCUS POINT: Stay on Task Awareness!! Staying on task while keeping non work & work conversations that don't pertain to current service to a minimum. While we all want to enjoy our shifts we also want to respect our coworkers' time whether they are actively working or just sitting down post shift. Let's be sure that we are still focusing on tasks that need to be done i.e. bussing tables, cleaning projects, etc.
FOH:
The Tap Room still has Elijah Craig 18 & Blood Oath Pact 9 (we still have some Blood Oath Pact 9 at the pub), so if guests are really wanting to use Elijah Craig 18 as one of their Bourbon Passport options please let them know that it is available at the Tap Room!
Friendly reminder that we should be initialing bourbon stamps! It helps to stamp them as you go so that nothing gets forgotten & the guest taking the time (and $$) to complete the Bourbon Stamp Book gets the credit for their Bourbon.
FOCUS POINT: Bus Station/Dish Pit Organization Awareness! Please stack dishes in the bus bins/dish pit as “like with like”. Take an extra moment to help keep these areas tidier and make dishwashing more efficient and easier on our co-workers! It helps to put salad/pasta bowls, enchilada boats, and spin dip boats all in one bin as well (plates & soup cups/bowls in the other).
BOH:
Line: Now that we have backup shakers, please swap them nightly rather than leaving the seasonings in soup cups overnight.
Tracking: Sweet Fries–2/5 thru 2/12- We sold 111 lb 4 oz of sweets and used 115 lb 2 oz, missing 3lb 14oz. This means we only over-portioned by 3.3%. Great job everyone! Going to move on to tracking a secret item this week.
Tracking: Fries–Over one week we used 8,805 oz of fries, had 76 oz on the waste chart, and sold 8,292 oz. This is a loss of 437 oz, or 4.9%. Still looks great!
FOCUS POINT–Line: Sweeping Hard to Reach Spots Awareness!! Let’s focus on sweeping those hard to reach spots such as between the fryers & under make-tables. We have been good about keeping the floor in general swept, but if we can hit these hard to reach spots multiple times a day we will become unstoppable!!!
FOCUS POINT–Prep: This week, choose a project you haven't done in a while. How does your time compare to our goal time?
