KK cafes and restaurants are mushrooming all over town, but not many are operating with kids in mind. Many of you who are young parents would definitely take notice, in the back of your minds you would've said "what a cool looking joint, too bad there's nothing suitable for ah boy/ ah girl to eat.
You may be wondering whether how many of these cool and hipster looking restaurants have something that little Timmy or little Ally would enjoy as much as daddy and mommy .Well, the good news is that there are many kid-friendly and family-friendly cafes. I am blessed to collaborate with Eat n Hop to bring you a few options. Here are some of them.
1. Sutera Harbour Resort Muffinz Deli Cafe
Did you know that all Sutera Harbour restaurants are open for public to enjoy? Many thought that they're for members or stay in guest only. Which is not true. You can hang out at a 5 stars environment with affordable prices!
Muffinz has a full menu that’s for kids, with balanced meals that come in kid sized portions. Some of the offerings on the menu include sandwich, pasta and burgers.
Additionally, there are also plenty of activities for kids including big space for them to move around.
Cute kids menu with some activities to keep your kids busy.

Colorful beverages catched Kyle's attention, he had all with few sips haha.
Side note, Muffinz team can help you organize a lovely birthday party for your child too! Come with kids party packages.

Café Tatu is famous for their buffet dinner. Kids menu available too. It is best of both worlds for both kids and parents. They have a dedicated children's indoor play area at the corner, with slides, rocking horses to fill their time while their parents chat away and enjoy the meals.
