First kids’ plate

I had my first kids’ plate at a restaurant today. We went out for dinner and Mommy and Daddy decided that I was old enough and definitely a good enough eater to get my own meal instead of bringing something from home. These meals are probably meant to be eaten by elementary school kids, but I did a good job of finishing it at a year and 5 months.

It was a curry and rice kids’ meal and I loved it! Everything was very tasty, but I was really interested in the jelly dessert. I kept pointing at it and asking for it. It was so distracting that Mommy and Daddy had to hide it from me so that I would finish my meal first.

The big surprise was that I was not a big fan of French fries. Which is weird because that is one of Mommy and Daddy’s favorite foods! It always looked delicious when I saw them eat it before. I liked the flavor, but I thought it was too oily. I haven’t really had or enjoyed oily foods. Even the inari sushi wrapper was too oily for my taste. Daddy was happy to eat my fries for me and gave me some of his saba (mackerel). That I liked! It has a lot of omega 3, the good oils.

And of course the best part of the kids’ meal was the toy that I got. I was given a choice from a basket of toys and I naturally chose the car.
