Big catering orders are starting to roll in. Got one for 50 tomorrow, another next week, and had somebody leave a message on the machine yesterday about doing 150-200.
So, who wants to buy me another smoker?
Need to add to staff as well, because three of my cooks are occasionally getting into OT territory. They are working their asses off and I appreciate it, but they are tired and I can tell. Plus, since they are working all they can, I'm screwed if anyone wants to take time off, calls in sick, etc.
We've also been discussing moving to table service so that we can keep take-out separate. The system right now isn't working when it's busy. There's a line out the door and some people have already called ahead for pick-up order, others are in line to eat in, and people waiting for their take-out are just sitting in booths or seats waiting for their food so those who do want to dine in can't find a seat even though there may be some available, etc. It's a clusterfark.
Good problems to have, no doubt, but it's certainly something that wasn't anticipated from the beginning.
