The weekend is practicing rolling its R’s.
Just in time for Mother’s Day gifting: 1) An exclusive trove of rare vintage women’s Rolexes and Cartiers. 2) 35% off Phaidon’s legendary collection of art and cooking books. 3) A handsome box of Belgian chocolates blended with cosmopolitans and margaritas, for 25% off. Right this way for Mother’s Day glory...
May 12: Mother’s Day. Today: the day you visit this new jewelry store in Russian Hill from the Acrimony and Acre girl and pick up a rose gold ring or a sterling silver bracelet for her. And some cufflinks for yourself. Not necessarily in that order.
This is pretty simple, really. There’s a new monthly roller disco party in the Mission. They’ll play disco. You’ll skate-dance. It’ll all work out. Oh, and costumes are strongly encouraged. Don’t do anything Earth, Wind & Fire wouldn’t do.
Couple things going on at Craftsman & Wolves: 1) They just got their beer/wine license and will be open late-ish starting May 6. Translation: brave new world of wine and sloppy joes. 2) They’ll be setting up shop next to Blue Bottle at the Ferry Building on Saturdays now. Translation: yay.
Right. That big horse race in Kentucky. That’s happening Saturday. And so is the Starlight Room’s Derby party. Go for the Southern buffet (deviled eggs, braised brisket with a bourbon-peach glaze...) and stay for the best-dressed contest. Tell your seersucker top hat to look alive.
You like spaghetti. Spaghetti likes you. Hey, the two of you should get together at Capo’s this Sunday (and every one after that). They’ll be doling out enough spaghetti and meatballs, pasta e fagioli and garlic bread to feed four to six people for $40. Well, that worked out.
