Saipan Grand Hotel is pulling out all stops for this Mother\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n
Assistant food and beverage manager Anita Go said Saipan Grand Hotel would be celebrating the event with a Special Mother\u2019s Day Brunch Buffet on May 14 from 11am to 2pm at the Aoi Japanese Restaurant.<\/p>\n
Go said that, besides the usual fare that the Japanese food outlet prepares for its Sunday brunch, its Special Mother\u2019s Day Brunch Buffet will include a carving station reserved for special occasions.<\/p>\n
Executive chef Christopher Adams said roast pig and roast ham at the carving station will join Aoi Restaurant\u2019s already delectable lineup of Japanese fare like tempura, sashimi, sushi, sukiyaki, shabu-shabu, lobster, and steak teppanyaki. <\/p>\n
To make the Special Mother\u2019s Day Brunch Buffet even more exceptional for the celebrants, Saipan Grand Hotel and Aoi Restaurant will also be giving away complimentary family portraits courtesy of Saipan Photo Lab.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand that Mother\u2019s Day is all about family, reunions, and sharing a special meal together, so what better way to celebrate the occasion than by immortalizing the moment in a photograph,\u201d Go said.<\/p>\n
While mothers are enjoying the spotlight during their special day at Aoi Restaurant, children and those who are still kids at heart can check out Saipan Grand Hotel\u2019s spacious lobby as Go will be reviving her very successful Kids Buffet promotion, which debuted during the hotel\u2019s Easter Sunday Brunch.<\/p>\n
Adams has prepared a slew of all-time kids\u2019 favorites for the $5 mini buffet starting with fried chicken, cheeseburgers, hotdogs, spaghetti with meat sauce, pizza, French fries, nachos, ice cream, and \u201cbasically just stuff that kids love to eat,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
As an added bonus, participants of the Kids Buffet can get into Whimsy and play for free.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe idea here is that mothers will still enjoy themselves and not worry about the kids because we have the Kids Buffet and Whimsy\u2019s to keep them all busy,\u201d said Adams.<\/p>\n
Go also said a special gift awaits dine-in mothers and all guests will be given a chance to participate in a raffle, with prizes that include an overnight stay for two at Saipan Grand Hotel, Sunday Brunch for two at Aoi Restaurant, and dinner for two at Surf Terrace. <\/p>\n
She said the Surf Terrace prize will be extra special because the al fresco restaurant will be unveiling its new menu in the next couple of weeks and winners will be one of the first to sample it.<\/p>\n
Go and Adams, however, reminded would-be guests to reserve early because they expect a packed house this Mother\u2019s Day. To prepare for the occasion, Go said she will be using a part of the lobby to entertain guests that are expected to spill out from the Japanese restaurant.<\/p>\n
The Special Mother\u2019s Day Brunch Buffet costs $22, while the Kids Buffet at the lobby is priced at $5. For reservations, call Saipan Grand Hotel at 235-6616. <\/p>\n
For those who have a little more time and a few more bucks in their wallets, Saipan Grand Hotel is also offering a Mother\u2019s Day Room Package. <\/p>\n
For just $99, guests will be treated to an overnight stay at a deluxe room, buffet breakfast for two at Aoi Restaurant, and a set dinner for two at Surf Terrace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
