Dinner
FOH
A busy start to the dinner service with 117 covers coming in the first hour - reservations were nicely spread throughout the resturant so no one was slammed, orders were being put through in a timely manner. There was a rush due to the strong start to service but the pass team dealt with it well. We were a bit short tonight due to last minuet sickness and a new staff memeber (Medi first shift on pass). The pass needed a bit of extra support but everyone chipped in and helped run the food. Great effort from everyone tonight. T404 Alexander Ohlsson celebrated their anniversary here and were over the moon with the bubbles send at the start. They really enjoyed the girolles in the tagliatelle and came over to thank the staff on the way out.
BOH
Kitchen experienced a rush at the start and there were a few aways at the same time due to the nature of the night- the guest experience wasnt affected by this. Lots of bluefish tuna sold tonight which was great to see. The FOH team really getting behind this dish.
Events / Reservations
Strong early start this evening with over 100 covers in the first hour. The team were generally really strong with turns but a few slower groups did have to move inside or onto the 500s. One no show of 5, took 6 walk ins. Notable guests: Emily King with Adam Thirlwell and Alison Macdonald, Neil Tennant, Serena Lightner, Tara Pawils (chef), Toby Smeeton, Alvaro Barrington with Roisin Tapponi
Beverage
Mostly Toklas rose (what we had left before the new stock arrives tomorrow) & white this evening, with a few expensive bottles scattered in between. T404 - has been before; likes deep complex Italian reds. I reccomended he try the Colome, El Arenal as he wanted to try something 'different'. Really enjoyed, and followed up with the Gigi Bianco Pora Barbaresco 2009. T200 (first sitting) - Maison Valette Pouilly-Fuisse. T200 (second sitting) - Elvio Cogno Pre-Pheloxera Barbera 2019.

Revenue: Lightspeed net ex-VAT · lunch = tickets opening before 15:00.
Events: split from Lightspeed accounting groups (Food/Drinks/Wine Events, Event Hire), shown within each shift. Booking detail and budget from the events sheet.
Events pipeline: sheet cost column (ex-VAT where entered) summed by month vs FY budget — unpriced bookings excluded.
Covers: SevenRooms non-cancelled bookings. SPH = food/bev revenue ÷ covers.
Sales budget: current month pro-rated to today; complete months use full budget. Events budget: events sheet (fiscal year).
Revenue forecast: actual MTD + normal-day rate × remaining normal days + booked events. The normal-day rate is this month's actual non-event-day average, regularised toward the budget's normal-day rate early in the month (an ~8-day prior) so a strong or weak start does not swing the whole month; it converges to actuals as the month progresses. Whole-venue events (≥£15k) replace the day; bar events keep ~70% of a normal day alongside the event.
Profit: restaurant Net Profit & Trading EBITDA from the latest MI management reports; updates monthly as reports are issued.
Guest feedback: SevenRooms post-dining surveys · Google reviews via Google Business Profile API (all reviews, paginated).
