Mother's Day in the time of COVID19...

Struggling with how to celebrate Mom during the time of COVID?! Struggle no more as many of your favorite restaurants are offering Mother's Day meal packages that are easy to order ahead of time and pick up Sunday morning for delivery to Mom or to take home to enjoy with her, if you're sheltering in place with her! 

Here's a few I've seen that are worth of mentioning IMHO: 




Morning Lavender in Tustin
: If Mom is a fan of afternoon tea, then she'll be super excited to receive Morning Lavender's boxed afternoon tea set! For $25, Mom will be treated to 4 finger sandwiches, a lavender lemon scone with clotted cream and preserves, 2 dainty desserts and 1 bag of fine loose leaf tea. Although Mom will have to brew her own tea, this set pretty much sets the scene for a nice little afternoon tea. Note: It MUST be ordered by Tuesday, 5/5 end of day for pick up so get on it if this is what Mom's heart desires!









Selanne's Steak House in Laguna Beach:  Savor dishes such as “Kevin’s” Bananas Foster French Toast, Chicken and Waffles and Monte Cristo, along with a special Family-Style Mother’s Day Dinner of Cedar River Farms Salt Baked Prime Rib Roast with Roasted Garlic and Rosemary Mash. Mother’s Day Dinner pre-orders will be taken through Wednesday, May 6; Mother’s Day Brunch orders through 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 10. See the full Mother’s Day Dining To Go Menu at this link: https://bit.ly/3b2cako
and call in your order at 949/715-9881. 






Lemonade in Newport Beach and Irvine: The tasty Lemonade has put together a special Mom's Day Box with all of her brunch favorites! $75 get you a enough to serve 4 people with leftovers - items include two large quiches - sausage & smoked bacon with caramelized onion, and goat cheese & spinach paired with roasted potato and Hatch green chili hash, fresh fruit, spring salad, a flower bouquet and a Rockenwagner bakery box.  Pre-order now for pickup or delivery Saturday or Sunday. Order on their website: https://lemonadela.com/item/mothers-day-kit










One of my personal favs, Old Vine Kitchen & Bar, has a special brunch deal for 6-8 people that includes one of their amazing Frittatas AND most importantly, the makings for mimosas. Call 714/545-1411 to put in your order. 




Summit House in Fullerton: If Mama loves her prime rib, then Summit House may be your best option for Mother's Day! They're offering a special Mom's Day Menu with some of their premier entrees being offered a la carte like Colorado Lamb Shank, John Dory, Filet Mignon and of course, your choice of cut Roast Prime Rib of Beef. They also have a special "Family Meal" Prime Rib Dinner for 4 to 6 people for  $235 which includes 1/4 roast prime ribs of beef/Summit House salad/creamed corn au gratin (1 quart)/creamed spinach (1 quart)/ one loaf sour dough or multigrain bread (par baked)/J.

Adya in Irvine: If Mom is feeling like some tasty Indian food then Adya is your best bet with their Mother's Day Menu. Featuring 6 courses w naan, including a garlic chile shrimp dip and a spiced halibut with biryani rice and coconut curry sauce (#yum!). All this for $70 for two people or $135 for 4 people. Order by Thursday, May 7 for a Saturday pickup! Email: info@adyaoc.com to put in your order. 













Susiecakes Bakery in Newport Beach: If Mom has a sweet tooth then perhaps she'd like a cake from the fabulous Susiecakes Bakery in NB. They'll be taking orders til 5pm the day before you'd like to pick it up but I'd place your order soon than later just to be safe!. Check their website for cake/sweets options and to place your order: http://susiecakes.com/
