11/23/25 Sunday Condor/Snug

63 on the books. Busy out the gate, died significantly after 7:30, as per Sundays. Christopher Banks (Housekeeping) and family came for dinner and had a great time. Hillary Duff was in, as well as some friends of Chef. Service was smooth. Erick (bartender) trained on Expo. He also expressed a lot of interest in Cocina bartending shifts, which is good if Ruben moves on to HR. He also only has 1 shift this week, in an event this weekend. I would like to squeeze him in somewhere over Thanksgiving if possible. Amanda did great on host again. If we decide to have a defined anchor host role, or lead host, she'd make a great fit. 

D'ete was prickly about tipout percentages tonight. She feels like she should get more than the bartenders. I just listened. 

Airpots for Cider and Hot Chocolate service in lobby were tested and are ready to go through the holidays. They'll be stationed in La Cocina Kitchen, and Lobby servers can self serve and garnish. This will require a bartender or MOD to heat on stovetop and put into airpots pre-service. The Cider is easy, the hot chocolate will be trickier. I can to do it on the days I am here.

Keegan asked for a new apron and shirt. She works 5 days a week and I guess doesn't have backups.



Comps:

Christopher Banks - Dessert and mangager discount

Jean - Skirt Steak, server error

12/5/25 MID

 I am going to leave some notes, but add some later. Sorry late night.  KRISTY - can you follow up and ensure that by Monday/Tuesday we have someone sort the grinder issue. Luc replaced the grider with another for now, the one acting up is in the liquor room. You can reach out to Handlebar and Luc has another guy if needed but as I understand it Handlebar sold us that grinder. Please text the F&B thread if you need more contact info. Brandon or Warner can get us. Thanks for handling this and keep us updated. We should be good with current grider til Monday.  FYI- Reminder for Luc to have Mel bring Zing Zang to Hotel Saturday after shift. Low due to back order.  Lobby needs more oversight by mid. I let that down today. I was there by 5:45/6 but in events pre and because we only had one cocktailer and she came at 6, the snug could have used my support around 5 pm I think. Luc and I discussed the team as a whole focusing on the MOD distribution and the Lobby needs i...
