I don't think these restaurant PR people have kids... why would I spend $29 to go to a fancy restaurant WITH MY KIDS? I'd rather pay a babysitter $29 so I can go to the corner liquor store and booze it up for an hour with the old alcoholic geezers in my hood. Wink

Probably for older kids

I agree if you have kids 6 and under... but if you have kids that are 7/8 or older, I could understand how as a parent you might want something nicer for dinner, but don't want to pay $7 for the same "childrens" menu that exists everywhere.  I would think that this would allow you to open your child up to different kinds of meals without paying $29 for their meal.

That was a pretty funny post

That was a pretty funny post msmithivas.

Nora, Adam and I went to breakfast at Uncommon Ground on Devon on Sunday. I wasn't really paying attention to what I ordered until we received the bill. $49 for breakfast with a 1-year old?!?! So I guess $29 bucks isn't that bad after all.

I should add that it was a damn good breakfast.
