Bring mom to Black and Blue for some hugs and kisses once she gets a bite of their Mother’s Day $65 set brunch menu (only $19 for kids under 12). Mom gets to choose her own meal with starter choices like a classic shrimp cocktail, cheesy French onion soup, melt-in-your-mouth wagyu beef carpaccio, or another cheesy option–the burrata salad. It’s going to be a hard decision for an entrée: crab or lobster bennies, a lobster omelette, succulent steak and eggs, hot forno baked french toast. To finish it all off she’ll have to pick between a delicate strawberry shortcake, a wonderful banoffee tart and a sweet pick-me-up with the espresso cheesecake.
