A meal out with 3 kids in Duquesa area

I am typing with one hand on keyboard and holding a baby in another so please excuse any typos!

This is what I love about living in Spain, especially in this area of the costa del sol. The waiters in restaurants are so accepting of kids. They do not generally object to breastfeeding in public and make mums feel so welcome. This makes having a baby so much easier - mum´s can lead a normal life, well normalish!!

Psychologically, it´s great for a mum as they do not feel isolated.

The other day, we went to a lovely chiringuito, (beach bar) near Duquesa, in front of Los Granados. Its called Romeo´s Bahia -I thoroughly recommend it. Really its more of a restaurant than a beach bar and not only does it offer fantastic, fresh traditional dishes such as calamares, gambas pil pil etc.´, but for the less adventurous, they do a great selection of pasta and pizza - all homemade.

For those only interested in a light snack or something quick for kids, there are snacky foods on the menu like hot dogs and chips. And for the healthier option, there are delicious salads including an exotic tropical one.

But why is it so good for kids? Apart from the excellent cuisine, sumptious ice creams and milkshakes and the fact that it is right on an unspoilt Manilva beach, the restaurant has a special kids table.

The table is actually a blackboard and kids can sit round it colouring with chalk provided by the restaurant. So parents can enjoy their coffees whilst their kids are thoroughly entertained.
