Cure the thirst, Spring lamb, new digs and something for mama

Haven't you worked up a thirst from this recent heat wave? Happy hour at Jeanty at Jack's just might quench it. Monday through Friday, from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., they feature $3 beer, $7 wine and best of all, $1 Hog Island oysters. Stay for dinner, too, since their food is so good!

Speaking of satisfying one's thirst, how about heading to Suppenküche for a few cold brews? They have valet parking now from Wednesday through Saturday, 5:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., $7/car. For those of you who love their hearty German fare like I do, you can find recipes for their braised beef rolls with spätzle and marinated red cabbage online. Don't miss their anniversary party which is tentatively slated for May 21st; they should be able to confirm the date next week.

Next Wednesday, April 29th, Coco500 chef Michael Morrison celebrates Spring by preparing a four course tasting menu ($65) of central valley lamb. If you like, pair it with the newest releases from A Donkey and Goat, a wife and husband owned and operated winery in Berkeley ($30). Visit their website for the menu.

Did you know that Bar Crudo's last day on Bush Street will be April 25th? But don't worry, they are reopening at 655 Divisadero on May 1st!

The tablehopper notes that Chef Charlie Kleinman (Fifth Floor and Fish & Farm) has embarked upon a new project slated to open in the FiDi in June. It's focus? I bet you won't guess,...barbecue! I'll keep you updated as I get more info.

Don't forget that Mother's Day is on Sunday, May 10th. You can go to opentable to book your reservations.
