During the pandemic, Medium Rare owner Mark Bucher has provided thousands of free delivery meals to seniors and healthcare workers on various holidays. Now that dining restrictions are beginning to lift, he decided to focus on making people happy in a different way. Yesterday, he reunited three sets of friends and family all kept apart during the pandemic with a Mother’s Day brunch at the Bethesda location of his steakhouse.
Bucher held a contest, accepting entries from more than a couple dozen people. He narrowed the number down to three sets of winners many of whom he’d fly in to attend the brunch.
