Mothers day brunch has to be the most overrated meal of the year. $50/person for poorly cooked bacon and eggs. We made the mistake of going to COP one year and never again. The food was better at the golf club in Chestermere but still overpriced and not worth it.

Sous vide setups are pretty inexpensive.

Personally, I usually just go to my parents place and we set up shop in the kitchen doing eggs, bacon, sausages, fruits and coffee/milk tea for a brunch. Inexpensive, easy to make, filling and everyone gets a chance to casually chat while cooking together. Sometimes we grab baked goods to add to the meal or we will substitute the greasy foods with some hearty soups. We make our own, but farmers market soups are good options if you wan't to just heat something up.

We've gone out to various places and usually it's so busy it's not even a good time. As a family, we've started eating at home more often for special occasions.

If morning doesn't work, it's usually firing up the BBQ in the evening.

I would suggest Starbelly for their Market Style Brunch if you would like to go to the deep SE. The girlfriend and I go here quite often and the brunch is great, it's not your typical bunch type setting. No scrambled eggs sitting in a tin...you order them the way you want, couple different egg's benedict to choose from as well.
