Eating Out With My Toddler... IKEA

Restaurant @ IKEA Tampines
Do you know that they give free baby food for diners? I didnt until now!
What a waste as Bay is off bottled baby food already.
Kids' menu is S$2.90 per set including an ice-cream which cost $0.50 from the bistro
If you ordered the kids' chicken nuggets meal, IKEA will donate $1.75 to help educate kids!
That means the meal is like $0.65 only!
What's more, for the month of November, for every $20 in the restaurant, you will get a $5 shopping voucher for home furnishing products.
There's a little play area inside the restaurant for the kids to have fun while adults eat and chat!

 Going gaga about "making" ice-cream... Bay is 27.5 months
  

Enjoying their after dinner treats!

Eating Out With My Toddler... Shin-Sapporo Ramen

Shin-Sapporo Ramen @ Century Square
Kid's menu is available but I thought it's not so value-for-$
We ordered the set menu with 1 mini ramen and 1 mini don. (We had Menchi ramen + Oyaku don)
With the FREE topup of ramen, (no free soup, just the plain ramen, so you have to keep some soup for the topup) this set meal is more than enough for the 2 of us.

Eating Out With My Toddler... Suki-Ya Hotpot Buffet

Suki-Ya Hotpot Buffet @ Tampines Mall, B1
Free for kids below 4 years old
We had the double-sided hotpot and ordered a non-spicy soup base for the kids, they loved the udon, japanese fish cake and of course the softy ice-cream
There is "free flow" of iPad at the kids corner!
We were given a table near to the kids corner so the boys can play while we eat our dinner.

Eating Out With My Toddler... NYDC

I eat out with my boy most of the time after he crossed the "ok to eat outside food" official age of 12 months. Most of the restuarants in Singapore provide some form of kids cutleries and high chair, so eating out is not much of an issue. Many places provide very reasonable kid's menu.
 

FAQ 1: Who said 12 months is the official "ok to eat outside food" age?
Ans: Hmm... I dont know and I didnt ask!

FAQ 2: Am I concern about the excessive intake of salt, oil and MSG?
Ans: Yes, of course! I will try to "wash" the food in warm water if I find them too salty or oily and I usually leave out the soup or gravy.

FAQ 3: What sort of food do you order for your boy?
Ans: Usually I will check out the kids menu first and see if they have any interesting food. Most of the time he will share my food. I will have to order something non-spicy for him though. It is important to make a conscious effort to maintain a well balance diet while eating out. Meaning that there shall be protein, fiber and carbohydrate for each meal. I find that it is easy to forget about the greens when eating outside.

Here's the food that I ordered for my boy while eating out...

02 October 2011: NYDC @ Tampines One.
We ordered the chicken little spaggy and they are considered enough to cut the spag into short length.
No drinks included in the meal
