Appendix: ● Alex thinks we’ll be able to reallocate some of the payroll from our FOH budget to hire more cooks. ● However, Peta is a bit hesitant to add that to the charter. How do we know we won’t need to hire more servers or hosts?Until we have some data that can accurately project revenue increases, we won’t know how much we’ll have available to hire more kitchen staff. Deanne shares the concern about

reallocating payroll,but still thinks we should include a plan to ensure the kitchen has the appropriate resources. Maybe we can monitor the payroll and bandwidth of the BOH (that’s “back of house: all the kitchen staff, bussers, and behind-the-scenes staff) and open up two part time line cook roles in the meantime? Peta wanted to flag the goal to decrease guest wait time. As Gilly pointed out at the meeting, the goal of decreasing table turn time should naturally reduce guest wait time, as well as increase daily guest counts. They doubt if it really needs it to be a separate goal. Peta will talk to the rest of the team about the payroll issue and whether reducing wait times should be a separate goal. Regarding appetizers Alex wanted a more aggressive increase, however Gilly pointed out that the tablets may not have that big an impact on app sales at her location. So,Peta is proposing a 15% average increase overall, with the North location targeted for a 10% increase and the Downtown location targeted for a 20% increase. Peta wants to tie the goals of decreasing waiting time and adding more cooks to a specific timeline so we know when to evaluate whether or not we’ve achieved them. Since we’re aiming to pilot these in April, Peta thinks measuring them through the end of June makes sense. Carter assumed they’d be adjusting the policy on order returns to due error as part of the tablet rollout. However, it was decided this will be a separate project.
