For a toddler, I'm calling that adventurous enough :D <br /><br />Eating out with kids at this age, palate aside, just isn't that fun since there's too much minding the children time and not enough enjoying the food and relaxing time. I forgot to say on your other post - we LOVE Mama's Fish House! We've eaten there once and I still think of it.

We have one who will try a lot. The other just won't. When we're not with the kids, we eat pretty much every meal out & explore lots of local places. With the kids, it's less enjoyable & quite frankly, more difficult. Not to mention lots more expensive.<br /><br />We did hit up Monkeypod Kitchen, which was great. Live Hawaiian music (the boys were enthralled), great local cooking, but a broad enough menu to appeal to all. And, a great beer menu. Hit the mark for all of us. :-) Hawaii Plannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04760426766801381563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2445523662180116681.post-21482929632911645962016-11-30T17:54:59.637-08:002016-11-30T17:54:59.637-08:00But of course, with the dino nuggets. ;-) A huge k...But of course, with the dino nuggets. ;-) A huge kid favorite. <br /><br />Thanks - it makes my life so much easier to have a menu plan. I can't imagine getting off of the plane, heading to Costco (it was the day before Thanksgiving, no less, and a MADHOUSE) & not knowing what I was buying. I had a menu plan & a list, and it was still a bit scarring. ;-)Hawaii Plannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04760426766801381563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2445523662180116681.post-76728197682246651282016-11-29T17:11:49.871-08:002016-11-29T17:11:49.871-08:00We do!

When I travel, it's about sampling the local cuisine so I can't entirely skip it but it's a great way to feel like I know a place. And we will occasionally make friends with the restaurant proprietors too, since we really like finding small local hole in the wall places.

I REALLY need to get more in the habit of meal planning. It's a very wise thing to do. Great plan!rivulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352395562904461909noreply@blogger.com
