Reader brief: Where to Celebrate Mother's Day 2026
Hey Nonny
Hey Nonny, the Arlington Heights restaurant, is offering a curated four-course Mother’s Day brunch for $39 per person on Sunday, May 10 (10:30 a.m.–2:30 p.m.). Their Sunday brunch service, which was recently launched, showcases Executive Chef and Co-Owner Tim Vidrio's seasonal, ingredient-driven cuisine.
The Mother's Day brunch experience begins with a seasonal amuse of an apricot cherry scone with Greek yogurt, berries and granola, followed by a choice of starters like smoked salmon mousse toast with ricotta and pickles or fruit and nut toast with bleu cheese mousse, honey and candied pecans.
Entrées range from a sourdough waffle with blackberry jam, rosemary butter, eggs and bacon, to a corned beef hash with smoked pastrami and pickled ramps, or a classic steak and eggs with grilled petit filet and red wine syrup.
Dessert options round out the experience with seasonal touches like a dark chocolate ganache tart with milk and honey sorbet or a roasted strawberry verrine with cheesecake cream and pistachio dacquoise.
For families, a $19 kids menu includes approachable favorites like Nonny French toast, scrambled eggs and a brownie sundae.
