Mother's Day Feasts This Weekend

Even though we should celebrate our mothers every single day, thanking them and praising them endlessly for giving us life and helping us through...we don't. So, we make up for it by making one day really, really nice for her.

Our special Alamo Mother's Day Feast events are this weekend and our chefs have truly outdone themselves!

Mom, surely one of these will ease the pain of my birth after all these years?

At the Alamo Village, chef Elijah Horgan has devised a perfect pairings of trash and class to accompany the misadventures of Hi and Ed for The RAISING ARIZONA Mother's Day Feast featuring such delicacies as "Hand-battered spicy chicken cutlets with marsala chicken jus and waffle shards with vanilla scented syrup and sliced strawberry." Mmm...mmm.

Chef John Bullington has masterfully mirrored the elegance and sophistication of Holly Golightly for the BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S Mother's Day Brunch where you can treat Mom (and/or yourself) to such treats as "house smoked rainbow trout with spring onion slivers and creme fraiche on whole wheat bagel toasts." Nothing wrong with that.

And finally, rounding out your triumvirate of options with the most "decadent" of all, chef Trish Eichelberger channeled her inner-lush to complement on screen romance in THE THIN MAN Feast which has matching spirits courses, so your throat won't get too parched when you enjoy your "seared Trout deglazed with Tarragon-Gin Court Bouillon, Cherry Tomato and Olive confit, Wild Rice Blend, and Grilled Radicchio".

Mom, I love you... With all my heart... But no, you can not have any of my bourbon flamed banana in a mocha crepe with satsuma glaze...you already had your own.

Happy Mother's Day, Moms!
