Five years of shift narrative from every dining room at Augusta Country Club.
First Torch of the year! Same old same old...however we had some confusion about all the special meals. Just a lot of guests saying different things to staff but it all worked out in the end. And then there were, of course, a couple more people that wanted the pie as opposed to the mousse. I offered sorbet or another option but again they were fine. No real issues
very slow lunch today. we sold 3 bowls and 4 specials. Denise smith and her bridge friends ate lunch on the terrace before heading to the ladies lounge. Bunny williams and the bowdens were a 5 top in the dining room. they had such a socila lunch full of laughs. Sam Nicholson Sr and wife had a quick lunch in the bar. no issues to report
Great Sunday night! We had most of our Sunday usuals including the Adams, the Givens, and the Aquinde's who all said everything was great. We were also joined by a 17 top consisting of the Lands and the Leveretts who ate in the founders room. They were served by Jackey and they also said everything was great. The team did a wonderful job as always. No issues to report.
Nice little dinner tonight! We were joined by some Saturday regulars and everyone seemed pleased with service no issues to report!
Steady lunch today! We had no one eat before 12:30 with almost all of our tables sitting at once. We were joined by most of our regulars including Mrs. Tucker, the Wards, and the Thigpen family. Mrs. Hagler complained that her sandwich was "floppy" which was immediately corrected. Also, Mrs. Tucker complained that her burger was overcooked so we quickly had it remade. Total lunch specials sold: 1. I made cuts accordingly through the shift. The staff did a wonderful job as always.
Another very slow Friday breakfast. Becky Smith was the only person to come to TH for breakfast. We had 11 in the mens grill including Stovall Walker, Andy Kilpatrick, and Nick Gladd. No issues to report.
New years day. Breakfast was pretty slow. Had a few folks go through the buffet. Not much happened during the day. 50-60 golfers went out but few came back in after play. No issues. KRS
Busier day than expected! We had about 35 covers for breakfast including the Bells, Hulls, and the Ashmores. All said everything was great! We quickly flipped the buffet for lunch service afterwards. We also had more than expected for lunch including the Martinez family and the Vaughn family who all enjoyed black eyed peas and collard greens. Everyone said everything was amazing. No issues to report.
Steady Saturday night! We were joined by the Givens, Hunters, and Kinseys. Everyone said everything was great! The team did a wonderful job as always. No issues to report.
Pretty smooth shift . We were down a server again but everything went well . We sold 2bowls and 1 special .
pretty smooth lunch shift. we were down a server but Jackey and Sarah handled everything well. we didnt have as many people we expected with it being the day after Christmas. we had the Perrotta's as a 9 top at table 5 and the Chrisman/Overstreet family were a 22 top on the terrace. the cagles were in without their children and family. Mr. Norris and Alex weir sat at the bar. they ordered the bowl and special. the Saul brothers were in with their dad. he tried to order an English muffin turkey sandwich and was a little frustrated that the bread choices were limited . over all it was a good shift
Great Pasta Night! We were immediately busy at 6pm. By about 6:30pm every table in the restaurant was filled. However, our service team handled it beautifully and were able to sit multiple walk ins as well. We had most of our regulars including the Haddens, The Birds, and the Pages. Who all said everything was great! After about 9:50pm we were able to quickly flip the restaurant for Christmas eve service, thanks to our DRA and food runner teams.
Kevin and Justin manned the Jones' at the WH with ease while we all focused on Brunch. No issues whatsoever, they had a great time as always and were super pleased with everything
Great last brunch for the season. Definitely a few no-shows again, which made for a slower than usual brunch service but it worked all in our favor. Not much to say, we've been rinsing and repeating every Sunday this month and have absolutely killed it. Super proud of everyone
This event took place in the Lounge. Pretty late start for this group. They started going through the buffet at almost 9, but as Socials always go, they cleared out fast after that. No issues!
This event took place in the Lounge. A lot going on for the debs this time around....the host came in about an hour before scheduled arrival and was perplexed by the gingerbread setup. We ended up unwrapping the houses (very early) and got bowls to put the candy in (as much as we could fit). Apparently there was also an expectation of wet wipes for the girls for after said gingerbread house-making. They all got up to wash their hands instead. There were also a few extra people not accounted for, luckily the kitchen was able to accommodate easily. Other than that, there were no real/pressing issues
Tournament had 120 players. Shotgun start at 11 had us manning the bar for beer bags and drinks before they left. Lunch ended up being busy. The room filled. A good bit of business was from college kids as they are off for xmas. We had then HHD food table set and ready around 2. Just after 4 is when the wave hit. The room quickly filled. Damion and myself took care of the floor as Levon had the bar. All went well. We were busy for the first 40 is minutes before the crowd started to leave. By dinner service, we had 2 tables of our regular cars players. No issues. Krs.
Quick and easy! The hosts were concerned about the band in the ballroom playing while they were in their presentation, but the two never overlapped. About 80% of the room left immediately after said presentation but Shannon, Marrissa and Taylor did their thing in the room for the small crowd regardless
Very unexpectedly slow night for this group. We thought that guests were just trickling in slowly, but by 7:30 the max amount of people in the ballroom was 80-85 (maybe). That being said, we staffed for over 100 so everyone was on their game! Staff did a good job staying on the floors and replenishing bar/buffet if needed
steady Wednesday in TH. We had a late Founders room at 1pm. alexander did an exceptional job at taking care of them and resetting the room. Alex Wier had a meeting in the presidents room and came down for lunch. the Petersen and Schmidt family were all together today at table 70. Mrs. Deese and Mrs. Sayer had a group playing mahjong in the ladies lounge. we had a 4th server today so it gave approval to serve them in the ladies lounge. Katherine Field and friends had a small Christmas gathering on the terrace. David Bell had a quick lunch in the dining room. Charles Lanier had a 5 top luncheon in the dining room as well. no issues reported to me
very busy Tuesday today . so many members checked in right at once. all managers on the floor had to jump in, making drinks taking orders and running food. we all worked very well together . surprisingly it felt like a warm summer day and we had many tables sit on the patio. Mrs. Lamar brought in a few of Kat MccCalls co workers and Kats Son joined them as well. Katherine Bailey and a client dined on the patio. Also a group of tennis ladies had their usual proseccos on the patio with lunch. Jane Barret and a few friends sat in the dining room and requested the fire place. Bunny williams and the Bowdens sat at table 10. the bar was pretty full. we a founders room which jessica took care of and a presidents room that jackey took care of
Steady dinner shift, everything went great! Plenty of pasta was made tonight. The Lopez Family enjoyed dinner in the Founders room!
very busy rush and quite a few large parties in TH today. Mrs. Sherman and Friends celebrated a birthday in the bar . they were an 6 top. The Forgay's 6 top celebrated their daughter graduation in the bar . the Schmidt's and Petersen had their usual group in for lunch. Mrs. Vaughn and friends had a 9 top in the bar as well.
Same old same old with this group. We did put up a tea and coffee station this year, while still doing coffee service several times, which did help quite a bit. Service did go a lot smoother this year; less running around than usual.
steady lunch with a full staff . Kitty Ward and husband had lunch on the terrace. Mrs Snelling and daughter had lunch in the bar , The Murrays were in today. Bunny and the Bowdens were a 5 top today.
