My toddler is pretty cute - but I don't think people would pay to eat with her!

My 3 year old handles sit down lunches (we go out to lunch usually every saturday or every other saturday). She's also good at breakfast.

Dinner is an absolute nightmare. I'm hoping next summer when she's 4 she'll be able to handle table service dinner, but I'm also going to schedule dinner as absolutely early as possible.

Seriously I'm thinking our trip when she was 20 months old will be the easier one than the one next summer.

But you know your kid best. What works for us may not work for you and vice versa (we do not go back to the room midday)

I'm a bit worried about dinner. We have 2 scheduled: one at Sanaa and one at Raglan Road. We are staying at Kidani so I'm hoping that will help with Sanaa. Raglan Road is our rest day. I wanted to go for dinner specifically so that she can see the performers.

I might take a look at our schedule and see if I can re-jig to make Sanaa a lunch.

We will be visiting at the end of January for our toddlers 3rd birthday (she is turning 3 on the second last day). On our previous trips we've eaten at mostly restaurants - mostly because we are vegetarian and it tended to be easier. It's been 4 years since we've been though, and I've seen there will be a vegan option at all places now.

Anyway - from those with experience, I'm hoping for some recommendations. Should we just stick to QS locations with a toddler? Or, even further, should we order groceries and pack a lunch (we have a 1 bedroom DVC rental which looks like it has a full kitchen).

Thanks!

take your kids to nice places to eat when they are young, so the will know what is expected for behavior as they age. just my .02¢
