Jeff Suppan, the former Crespi High standout and 2006 NLCS MVP when he was pitching for St. Louis, says his new eatery, Soup's Sports Grill, is in the process of a soft opening (it served its first meal on Nov. 17) but it plans a much bigger grand opening party sometime soon.
At the site of the former Wienery next to Paoli's (21028 Ventura Blvd., Woodland Hills), Jeff and wife Dana have set up a place with 11 high-def flat panel TV sets for sports viewing, and he's installed more than 20 music speakers arranged in six listening zones that offer "everything from crisp, clear play-by-play to old time baseball classics," he writes on the
restaurant's website.
In talking about opening his restaurant, Suppan seemed most pumped up about the fact groups could come in and hold parties at his place, including a roof-top deck that has authentic seats from the old Busch Stadium installed.

And as a tribute to the former occupant of the location, the Soup's Grill menu includes The Wienery's Hot Dog, a Vienna grilled on a toasted bun.
Soup's Grill is open 11 a.m. to midnight every day. More info: 818.884.6005
