As an adult, every meal with your mom is special. But there’s something so momentous about having a Mother’s Day brunch with your mom. As you get ready to dedicate one whole day to your mothers, we are here with the ultimate guide on restaurants all across India where you can head for brunch this Mother’s Day on 14 May 2023, with some delish food, amazing cocktails and a side of family gossip.
History of Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day was started by Anna Jarvis, who first organised the Mother’s Day service of worship and celebration at Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church in Grafton, West Virginia in 1907. The church today serves as the International Mother’s Day shrine. This day is a celebration honouring the mother of the family or individual, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society.
The following year, in 1908, the US Congress rejected the proposal to make Mother’s Day an official holiday but by 1911, all US states observed this day as a holiday, and some of them officially recognised Mother’s Day as a local holiday.
Mother’s Day which is more than a century old is not just another day. It is the day when we thank our mothers for their undying love and unending contribution to our lives. The one person who cooked and packed all our lunches all throughout school and college deserves a special meal on this day and forever. Treat your mom at these restaurants on Mother’s Day this year.
