Mother’s Day is right around the corner, and what’s a better way to show your mum some appreciation than by treating her to a delicious meal? If, however, like the rest of us, you aren’t exactly ballin’, here are some top Mother’s Day restaurant deals we’ve found.
Some of these places have free meals for mum – even free buffets – while others offer free food as long as there are several other paying diners. If you’re not into buffets, there are plenty of other promotions to make the best of, and you’re bound to find something here that’ll appeal to the entire family!
Bring your mum to PORTA’s Mother’s Day Semi-Buffet Lunch if she has epicurean taste buds, and she’ll get to dine free with three paying adults. Highlights of the buffet include Channel Bass & Risotto, Roasted Duroc Pork, and 48-hour Short Ribs. Bring along some coloured pens and markers, write a message to your mum in one of their special Mother’s Day card, and stand a chance to win a weekend staycation at Park Hotel Clarke Quay!  Â
