Let's face it, taking the kids out for a meal is no easy task, and there are several criteria to take into account to ensure a good time for the whole family. First of all, the budget: you don't want to break your PEL to please the whole tribe by putting your feet under the table. Then there's the menu: as we all know, children are fussy eaters, and you need to be sure that what you're going to put in front of their mouths will appeal to them, and that they' ll eat everything without complaining.
Children's menus are financially more attractive, and they're also a good way of avoiding wastage, since the portions are smaller than those for adults. Often, restaurants offer classic children's menus with the dishes they prefer: frites, steak haché, chicken nuggets, coquillettes, pizzas or burgers... But other restaurants are innovating and offering children's menus more in line with their menus, so that the little ones can awaken their taste buds with flavors from elsewhere.
Dessert is always included in every menu, with scoops of ice cream to enjoy when the weather's warm, and crêpes, waffles, cakes or compotes the rest of the year... It's a great opportunity to eat outside, with the whole family! The result? Relaxed parents/grandparents and adults, and children who are always satisfied with their menus.
To help you in your quest for the perfect restaurant to host your next family lunch, here are our family-friendly addresses!
