I’ll go with all the above, especial the doughballs. Equivalent in Japanese restaurants would be edamame beans – fiddly and addictive.

$30? $30? Where the heck do you eat for $30?

Italian food — Pasta — is really inexpensive. The entrees are usually around $12 – $15… times two, and the pizza is less than that.

Funny that I am just reading this. Tonight, my husband and I took our kids to one of our favorite Italian restaurants. We did everything right EXCEPT they brought the kids’ food first. Great tips.

Oh, Mama Bird, w hat are they thinking when they offer to bring the kid’s meal out first? Sure, I want to say, and then just wrap mine to go, cause I won’t be able to eat!

Thanks for the great ideas. My favorite part (aside from the pure genius dough idea) is that you’ve found a way to keep the cost down. Bless you!

I just take my kids at weird, empty times of day – three o’ clock! – and then the staff is much more relaxed and so are we. But my munchkins are fairly reasonable about that sort of thing. Except for the little one.

Never thought of the dough thing before…
