Restaurants for kids in Frisco

I think there are a couple of Denny's in Frisco, Colorado. McDonalds restaurants have those play grounds. Don't get the natives mad. It's not about getting mad. It's just that Frisco is one place and San Francisco is another place, even if "Frisco" has occasionally been used as a nickname for SF. If you mean San Francisco, don't say "Frisco", any more than you would say "Gotham City" when you mean "New York City". "Hey, I'm coming to the east coast and I wanna know all about Gotham City, where's a good place to stay and where are some really kid friendly restaurants in Gotham City?" And calling your wife the "cow" probably don't go over well in Frisco or SF or Gotham City. It is San Francisco or The City. Unless you are asking about: a..

This is an upbeat friendly place central location in Frisco (at Preston Rd. and Gaylord Parkway). Guests 10 & under can get their choice of Meat, 2 Veggies, & a Roll for just $2.99. http://www.cottonpatch.com/ |

Thanks for all thethe responses that were serious!
More seriously I would take them to Chinatown--especially for a dim sum lunch at a large place (with multiple rolling carts with metal trays holding plates with dumplingy things and shirmpy things and sweet bean-pasty things and barbeque things). You can pick several for only a dollar or two each and if the kids don't like one, they will certainly like the next. Here's one dim sum summary, but if you google you will get more compendia of recommendations: http://www.sallys-place.com/food/sin...sf_dim_sum.htm For hotel, I would use Priceline, first checking successful bids at www.biddingfortravel.com and if it doesn't like you will get Embarcadero specifically then stay at Union Square. From there you can take those beautiful trolley cars (collected from all over the world) a few stops to Embarcadero. Though maybe staying at Fisherman's Wharf, where the trolleys also go around to Embarcadero, might suit your kids interests more (more touristy shops--and a Trader Joe's!). The one limitation with Priceline would be that you get a room that will work for two adults, but are not necessarily guaranteed more than one bed. This place can be a good value, in a very good location a few blocks from Fisherman's Wharf on the Cable Car lines, where you can get a larger room or suite: http://www.columbusmotorinn.com/ |

Well I'll be dipped. If I didn't know better, I'd have thought that Doug
was describing places in San Francisco rather than in Frisco! "Douglas W. Hoyt" wrote in message ... Thanks for all thethe responses that were serious!
