Chicken fingers, grilled cheese, pasta – kids’ menus haven’t changed in thirty years and may limit a child’s palate

If you don’t have a child, and haven’t looked at a restaurant children’s menu in decades, they haven’t changed. The standards of 30 years ago – chicken fingers, fettuccine alfredo, grilled cheese – are all still there.in Toronto, they are mostly the domain of full-service chains, like Kelsey’s, East Side Mario’s, Baton Rouge, The Keg and Jack Astor’s, which all have fairly identical offerings for children. Except for The Keg, which serves a kids’ sirloin for $22.
To keep those kids contented, the restaurant provides fox masks, sailor hats and crayons. A pasta shaped like a fox’s face can be ordered in 60-gram portions with butter and cheese, tomato sauce or meatballs. TheNone of these options are on the menu. The downside is that it diverts the potential that restaurants hold for children – to experience something they’d never encounter at home.
