Great. That pizza place will be our dinner plan

Hi guys. What is the address for dumpling palace II? Is it near back bay? And any thoughts on Genarros 5 for early dinner? To give more context I'm solo with three kids under age of 6. They are pretty good eaters. But I have to keep logistics/transportation simple and stay somewhat close to backbay (Sheraton). Thank you

Thanks guys appreciate your honesty and I'll take your advice. I will not be seeking Malaysian or Burmese food in this trip ; )

appreciate the info! now, do i cook both at same time? separately? time and temp you believe can stay same? thanks!

I appreciate the suggestion. We will have children with us and so far it doesn't seem he or a few other Destin chefs are interested in doing a private dinner w children (even though of course we're willing to pay full price for them). So I'm Moving on...any Recs for best high end dining that doesn't mind children (again we're not expecting Mac n cheese for them) that may have a private room? Thanks and look forward to suggestions.

Now amber

Please keep us updated if you hear anything more of a Burmese restaurant!! Missing my favorite one back on the East Coast!

appreciate all the recs--i've printed out and packed in the suitcase. One last question--what are some great only in Cali spots we could check out--best California style burrito; best sushi (with emphasis on freshest fish--we're not as into the monster rolls with lots of sauce), fish tacos that are within 15-20 min of Carlsbad?

Not more than 20

Thanks all! any suggestions for places that are necessarily just a kid friendly place, but instead does really good food and allows kids as well? I know we have to compromise some--and we'll do that...but if there's a great spot for FOOD i'd love to know...

We'll be heading to Carlsbad again at the end of this month, this time w/ a 3rd kid. Will hit some of the spots discussed above, but wondering if anything interesting has opened up in or near Carlsbad--again we're open to all cuisines and love trying new things as long as Resto doesn't look down upon 3 kiddos under age of 5. We'd definitely eat on the early side. Will probably hit up San Diego 2 days on our trip so suggestions there also welcome. Thank you!!

We had a pretty good experience at El Alma for out group. The servers were working hard and looked spread thin. Food was on point though. The bug disappointment was they were out of ceviche-at 6:30 pm!!

Thanks for the suggestions. Was looking for something Auistin-y (no chains) and no one seems to take reservations, even for large groups-No on Threadgills, Moonshine, Jack Allen. Some places offer private parties but didnt want to go that route...I'm so disappointed! I'll have to keep searching...need to to figure out fast bc it's for this Saturday!

thanks so much for your great suggestions. I love Olive and June but since my husband and I are paying, we'd prefer more casual (and less expensive than that). I haven't tried any of the ones you've suggested so i'll check them out on line! thanks again.

Appreciate the suggestion. I don't have any connections to local culinary students. Was hoping for something a bit more straightforward in terms of a place that has menu options, possibly could deliver etc. Any one? Has anyone tried Central Market Catering? Whole Foods seems to be more pricey... Thanks

Thank you to all of you for providing me with such wonderful ideas, resources and inspiration! greatly appreciated. i'm excited to put this party together.
