On Mother’s Day, May 13, beginning at noon, the hotel’s award-winning brunch, by Master Chef Steven De Bruyn, is served in the legendary Grand Ballroom. It is $69 per person, plus tax and gratuity; and half-price, $34.50, for children under 12-years-old. A special dining activity for children is decorating cookies for their own Mother’s Day presentation. On the brunch menu is a dazzling array of sumptuous culinary offerings including a myriad of hot and cold entrées. Among the top-rated selections are a seafood extravaganza with whole lobster, crab claws and jumbo shrimp and an artful display of smoked salmon and whitefish. There are artisan cheeses and carving stations featuring tenderloin and turkey breast. Prepared to order selections include gourmet pastas and sauces plus breakfast favorites such as made-to-order omelets and French toast. Sophisticated dessert displays showcase seasonally inspired cakes, pies, pastries and sweets plus assorted whole fruit and fruit salads. To complement the brunch experience are unlimited brunch-cocktail favorites including Bloody Marys, Screwdrivers and Mimosas.
