It’s time to celebrate that one special lady – Mom! Zagat polled nearly 1,000 people nationwide, 71% of whom are mothers, to see how families are planning to celebrate Mother’s Day.
First rule of thumb, don’t be cliché and leave a trail of crumbs; only 4% of moms report wanting breakfast in bed this year. More than half of them (53%) say they want to go out to eat with family on Mother’s Day, with brunch as the preferred meal according to 39% of moms. And while you’re there, stick to the classics – 43% of moms favor Eggs Benedict, 35% favor omelettes, and 19% say they want the ubiquitous avocado toast.
When it comes to the most annoying brunch trends, respondents cite loud, live music (31%), communal tables (25%) and no reservation restaurants (21%) as the top 3 irritants.
Things that make mom happy? The top brunch cocktail is a Mimosa (23%) followed closely by a Bloody Mary (22%). However, its best to save bottomless brunch drinks for your friends because 65% of moms only have 1-2 celebratory cocktails.
