Mother's Day Dinner with The Keg Steakhouse + Bar

They say you don't truly appreciate your mother until you have your own child, and this couldn't be more true in my case.

If I'm being honest, my mother and I were not close growing up.

I was a typical preteen/teen who thought she knew everything and was sure my mother knew nothing.

She was the victim of all my eye rolls and attitude.

There were many days that I swore I would never speak to my mother again, but regardless of my empty threats, I was expected to be at the dinner table at 5pm to eat together as a family each night. 
It was tradition and my mom is big on tradition.

As a mother of three now, I can truly appreciate the importance of tradition and have created a yearly Mother's Day tradition with my mama.
Each May, my mom and I get together just the two of us to celebrate Motherhood.

This year for Mother's Day I took my mom to the Keg Mansion for a special Mother's Day dinner as a Thank You for all she has done for me and continues to do.

Growing up, our family dinners were spent around the kitchen table at home, but on special occasions The Keg Steakhouse + Bar was our favourite place to celebrate.

My favourite part of going to The Keg Seakhouse + Bar as a kid was ordering a few different starters and sharing them with my mom and brother.
This time we shared the baked garlic shrimp and calamari which were both absolutely delicious.
My mom already has plans to try to replicate the Greek feta sauce that came with the calamari, but I think we just need to make a trip back to The Keg Steakhouse + Bar ASAP.

For dinner we both had the Sirloin Oscar and OH MY GOODNESS.
It was SO good.
I usually get my steak done Medium Well but my mom insisted that I try it medium rare.
I can't believe I've been eating my steak wrong my whole life - medium rare is THE way to go.

We finished off the night with a coffee and mini creme brule which was the perfect size because I was SO full by the end of our meal but still wanted something sweet.

If you are looking for somewhere to take your mama out for Mother's Day this year, give your local Keg Steakhouse + Bar a call and make those reservations, your mama will thank you.
