Good Prices, Bad Menus

One thing that keeps pleasantly surprising us here in Spain is the pricing. Every time we have to pay, we feel buoyed by the low cost of everything. I’m sure the prices don’t seem as low to Spaniards who have salaries to match them, of course.

I don’t know why we have to to experience such blowing up of everything money-related.

What I don’t like, on the other hand, is that restaurants are not child-friendly. There are no children’s menus anywhere and nobody offers activity sheets for kids. Back home, even the fanciest places are prepared to feed and entertain kids. In the meantime, everybody complains about low birth rates.

One thought on “Good Prices, Bad Menus

  1. This one really surprises me from you.

    In the UK kids’ menus are generally overly processed chicken nugget type meals. I can understand a complaint about not being able to get child sized portions of meals, but I’d expect you to want Klara to eat the same type of food as adults.

    Similarly, if you are out for a family meal, why do you expect the restaurant to entertain your child rather than her being involved in what the family are doing?

    Have I misunderstood the problem? (and if replying would provide too much detail about your child, please ignore me, I am interested but I have no right to know).
