Family-friendly Japanese dining

If you love Japanese food but found dining at a restaurant with a toddler a little too much work, Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar is definitely worth checking out. Other than its unconventional concept of more than 10 booths that cook up (right before you!) over 300 varieties of Japanese food, its 15,000 square feet of floor space includes a family dining area with a children's play space.
So, while you're dipping your piece of sashimi into the wasabi-laced soy sauce, your anticipation will not be broken by cries of boredom as your kids are happily occupied at the play area which is furnished with low tables and toys designed to encourage the development of young minds and motor movements.

Ever since my son was an infant, Shokudo has been our go-to restaurant when I've a craving for some belly-warming ramen and decently priced sashimi. Of course, there are also the chawan mushi (savory egg custard) and Japanese pizzas which we all love so much as a family.

The skinny? A great dining place that's young children friendly for good Japanese fare. And if you dine there often enough, you can pick up their frequent diner card for a mere $30 that could chalk up savings from dining discounts and birthday specials that amount to much more than the membership fee. My annual membership just expired and I think it's time to renew it...
