Got those end-of-summer hunger pains? Relax. We've got no fewer than FOUR savory local events in the next two days to satisfy your appetite.

Tonight, head to Wing Wings for another Hapa Ramen pop-up. From what we can glean via Twitter, expect spicy tomato ramen, tempura corn fritters with pickled melon, garlic and spice tonkotsu ramen, and more. That's 6pm to 10pm tonight at Wing Wings, 422 Haight Street. Tomorrow, Memphis Minnie's continues its 12th anniversary celebration with more "roll-back" pricing. This time, the St. Louis Style Smoked Pork Rib Plate -- normally $16.75 - will be available at its original year 2000 price of just $12.95. That's all day tomorrow (Wednesday) at 576 Haight Street. Also tomorrow, Rice Cracker Sushi will be popping up at Vinyl (359 Divisadero), featuring "delicious sushi, dynamite mussels, cold beer, and great wine" from 6pm to 10pm. Finally, venture slightly south of the neighborhood and end your Wednesday night at Blackbird, where they'll be celebrating SF Cocktail Week in style. The bar is partnering with Tablehopper to present an Italian Happy Hour. We're talking "Italiano-style" cocktails, with salume pairings from Fatted Calf. That's $35 in advance, so get a-clickin'. A tasty week, indeed. Enjoy!
