Mothers share a bond with us that begins even before we take our first breath — carrying us for nine months and nurturing us with a love that lasts a lifetime. As we get older and get caught up in our own lives’ journey, it’s important to be grateful and appreciate all the love and care that our mothers have given us.
With Mother’s Day (11 May, Sunday) fast approaching, let’s hit pause on our busy lives and celebrate the amazing superwoman who raised us. Let’s make sure she’s showered with love, pampered, and treated to a delicious meal. With that, here are 12 best brunches and dinners to make mum feel extra special.
1. Lawry’s The Prime Rib Singapore
Mothers are some of the most cherished people in our lives. This Mother’s Day, why not let her have an unforgettable celebration at Lawry’s The Prime Rib at Mandarin Gallery along 333A Orchard Road?
From 9 to 11 May 2025, the kitchen brigade has attentively created a 5-Course Set Menu (S$179++), available for both lunch and dinner. It’s specially crafted to excite her palate and remind her just how deeply she’s loved.
Kickstart your feast with the Ceviche In Bloom, a delicate and opulent appetiser showcasing Ōra King salmon, scallop sashimi, wild octopus, and tiger prawn, flawlessly accompanied by Italian mesclun, and vine cherry tomatoes. It’s a vivacious dish that celebrates the essence and beauty of motherhood.
Then slurp on the full-bodied Heart & Home, a satisfying, luscious potato and cheddar soup crowned with crunchy croutons, bacon bits, and micro greens — guaranteed to comfort mum’s soul. Before you embark on the mains, be invigorated by the tangy Berryfruit Sorbet, a palate cleanser that preps your taste buds for the main affair.
Mum can take her pick between 3 delectable mains. Lawry’s star dish, the Signature Roasted USDA Prime Rib Of Beef features a 150g slow-roasted beef prime rib, US Idaho mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, whipped cream horseradish, and a choice of creamed corn, creamed spinach or buttered peas. Visiting Lawry’s without trying this is just wrong!
The Timeless Tenderness features a succulent grilled filet mignon paired with broccolini rabe, and your choice of fresh, tangy chimichurri or a smoky, boozy Diane sauce. If mum is more of a seafood lover, then Ocean’s Blossom will blow her away with a combination of Atlantic salmon, lobster tail, dill cream, and caviar all coming together in an elegant unison.
End your celebration on a sweet note with a delightful Basque Burnt Cheesecake, a velvety and rich centre with a perfectly caramelised surface. Those who confirm their reservations by 5 May 2025 will enjoy an Early Bird Discount of 10% off.
American Express Premium Cardholders who secure their reservations by 7 May 2025 are eligible for a 15% discount. That’s not all — diners will also receive a complimentary digital photo as a keepsake, along with a S$50 return dining voucher with every bill.

Utilising exclusive-imported ingredients from Italy, guests can take their pick between 21 traditional, home-crafted pasta varieties and 22 sauces — that’s 462 possible combinations (the world is really your oyster!).
This makes Pasta Fresca Da Salvatore the only restaurant in Singapore to offer the largest range of fresh pasta in Singapore.
Over at their Boat Quay branch, treat mum to the magic of Southern Italian cuisine while admiring the picturesque view of the Singapore River as you dine al fresco style.
Impress her taste buds with the Raviolo Gigante (S$30.90), a Mother’s Day special featuring a gargantuan, delicate house-made raviolo that’s filled with luscious mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, and sundried tomato. It’s served with smooth parmesan sauce, fresh herbs, and toasted pine nuts for an excellent blend of flavours.
If mum is a self-proclaimed seafood aficionado, she’ll enjoy The Black Sea (S$29.90) featuring charcoal linguine sautéed with juicy prawns and cherry tomatoes, all tossed in garlic, olive oil and birds’ eye chilli.
There’s also the all-new Tomino Con Caponata (S$20.90), a scrumptious dish of soft, creamy tomino cheese that’s breaded and fried till a perfect golden brown, and served atop a bed of sweet and sour eggplant caponata.
Who doesn’t love pizza? Enjoy classic favourites like Margherita (S$19.90/S$23.90) and Hawaiian (S$22.90/S$26.90) or feast on the meaty Diavola (S$22.90/S$26.90). The best part? You can opt to switch to a black charcoal pizza base at no extra cost!
