Sushi lovers will find a complimentary Mother’s Day treat at Genki Noodles and Sushi: all moms receive a gratis “I ‘Heart’ Sushi” roll (shrimp tempura and cream cheese topped with tuna, avocado, wasabi cream and garlic chili sauce) with an entrée purchase, rightfully served in a heart shape.

Garnish & Gather, Atlanta’s artisanal recipe kit service (think fresh ingredients from local farms, gourmet recipes and chic packaging), is offering a special Mother’s Day brunch kit created by Chef Jaye Moore. Eggs Florentine with orange Mornay sauce anchors the meal, while a mixed green salad tossed in a nutty shallot dressing, cheese-infused biscuits and a strawberry-rhubarb tart perfectly complement the delicious strawberry blini. Did we mention all this is just $100 for four people? There are three Buckhead pickup locations: Buckhead Patagonia, Brookhaven’s Cook’s Warehouse and Buckhead’s Sherlock’s Wine Merchant.
