Mums eat for free at Jinjuu!
You heard right! On 13 May, Mum will eat for free at contemporary Korean joint Jinjuu. As long as you have three guests in your party, you and Mum can chow down on all the goodies from Bibimbap to Bulgogi. The rest of you will have to pay $388 per person, but we think that’s a bargain for Mother’s Day dining in Hong Kong.

Mother’s Day dining at Rhoda
It’s no surprise that chef Nate Green is treating families to a special lunch this Mother’s Day, as he’s just about to welcome his second child to the family. Grab your mum, and celebrate at Rhoda with unlimited portions of Wicks manor pork and a spread of great vegetarian sides including charred cream corn with harissa (this is so good!) before finishing off with a Ginger Biscuit Trifle. All kids under 8 eat free too, while the oldies will only be set back $320p/p.
Sustainability is key at Rhoda, and we spoke to chef Nate Green about his passion for eco-friendly food
