Reading the title it isn’t even OP’s friend who owns the restaurant. It’s the friend’s parents. So you’re now asking your friend to be in an awkward spot approaching their parents for you.

Yikes. Breakfast in bed. This is Mothers Day, not the be all end all.

Ew.

People who try to personally benefit from their social ties. You are a wealthy/connected person's worst nightmare.

And this is not even a favor you need. It is because you did not plan ahead, and there are a million other restaurants out there.

Please don't use this social capital, for such a flimsy reason. Your instincts are concerning.
