Restaurants in Norfolk and Waveney are gearing up for a busy Mother's Day as they release takeaway and meal kit menus.
The celebration, which this year falls on Sunday, March 14, is traditionally a busy time for restaurants, when bookings would be high and tables few and far between.
While coronavirus restrictions will soon be starting to ease, we remain in lockdown and the hospitality sector will still be relying on takeaway and deliveries.
So while we might not be able to mark the day in the usual way, here are a few local businesses offering special menus.
Shiki, Norwich
The Japanese restaurant, on Tombland, will be launching what chef and owner Shun Tomii said would be a "Shiki-style afternoon tea".
Final menus are yet to be published but it could include wagyu beef burgers, Katsu sando and Japanese sweets and sushi. See its social media pages for more.
Farmyard, Norwich, and the Dial House, Reepham
The restaurant and hotel have released their dine at home Mother's Day menu, which includes options such as a 1kg Swannington cote de bouef for two to share, and extras including a pink rhubarb and Prosecco bellini and crispy pork steamed buns.
