If you ask Maureen Savage point-blank about her ethnicity, she’ll smile and claim to be “three-quarters Irish.”

On reflection, however, she maintains that her immediate family — which includes a couple of business partners, mother Jo Savage and aunt Pat Easley — will staunchly declare their Irish heritage, playing down all ties to any clan other than on the Emerald Isle.

“Well, we drink like we’re Irish,” chuckles the managing partner of Napa’s Suppertime, a casual Napa restaurant that’s served locals for the past 15 years.

Maureen may well be Napa’s queen of corned beef and cabbage, the traditional meal eaten by Irish — and all who claim to be — on St. Patrick’s Day.

For Maureen cooks up some 400 pounds of beef brisket on March 17 every year, satisfying the hunger pangs of Suppertime customers, including those who dine at the Solano Avenue eatery and those who request the holiday meal be delivered to their homes.

“Now that we’re open for breakfast, you’ll be able to get corned beef all day (on March 17),” she advises. “We’re serving corned beef hash for breakfast, we’ll have corned beef sandwiches at lunch and for most of the day you’ll be able to order our main entree of corned beef, cabbage, red potatoes and carrots.”

Suppertime will also provide the holiday meal for residents of three area mobilehome parks, Maureen Savage said.

Working with her mother and aunt for the past seven years, Maureen notes that Suppertime was launched in Bel Aire Plaza in the early ’90s and relocated to its present site, 2977 Solano Ave. She said the business specializes in family menu meals prepared and served at the restaurant as well as delivered to homes all over town.

She said Suppertime was launched “to make your life easier. We’ll cook homestyle meals just for you or for your whole family.” Maureen does the majority of the cooking these days, with aunt Pat specializing in gravies, sauces and the popular desserts. “My mother makes great soups — I just can’t replicate her minestrone.”

As for the St. Patrick’s Day fare, she said corned beef hash will be the featured offering at breakfast, along with baked beans which “are another Irish favorite. Bet you didn’t know that.”

In addition to corned beef sandwiches at lunch and the traditional corned beef and cabbage entree for dinner, the kitchen crew at Suppertime will offer a limited menu that includes clam chowder and shepherd’s pie as well as bangers and mash.

Breakfast will be served from 7 to 11 a.m., with the holiday menu offered from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. And you’ll be able to order up a glass of Guinness stout for a couple of bucks, she said.

For entertainment, John Kelly and Green Grass will be serenading diners with traditional Irish ballads, folk tunes and jigs from 6 to 8 p.m.

Suppertime is taking orders now for its traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner, with a price tag of $14 per person.

Call 224-3097 to order the St. Patrick’s dinner for families large and small, and to arrange for pickup or delivery.

The restaurant serves three meals weekdays and is open for brunch and dinner on Saturdays, brunch only on Sundays.
