We think mothers are a pretty big deal, and so do the businesses of Eastern Market Main Street! Let's celebrate the universal values that mothers show us every day - kindness, endurance, wisdom, and love - on Sunday, May 12.
Pamper the moms in your life
Put together a self-care basket with a JRINK juice, lavender lotion and hand towel from Antiochia, and orange blossom candle from Paris Bleu DC
Pick up a gift certificate from nailsaloon, Eastern Market Nails, or Pen Nails and treat them to some self-care
Say "I love you" with sustenance
Plan a brunch at one of EMMS' fabulous restaurants. Take the traveling types to Joselito Casa de Comidas or Montmartre, get your surf fix at Hank's Oyster Bar and your turf fix at Boxcar Tavern, or take the whole family (dogs included!) to Mr. Henry's patio.
Go above and beyond with food for their mind. Find a new favorite memoir, thrilling novel, or stunning coffee table book at Capitol Hill Books or East City Bookshop.
Make a day of it
Start with a leisurely stroll through the Flea Market and inside the historic Eastern Market, grabbing coffee at Radici or breakfast at Market Lunch. Pick up a beautiful bouquet at Blue Iris Flowers before heading on the Capitol Hill Restoration Society's House and Garden Tour (Details and tickets: https://chrs.org/house-and-garden-tour/). End your day with drinks at Beuchert's Saloon or Barrel and dinner at Acqua al 2. And don't forget dessert at Pitango or Trickling Springs Creamery!
