## Caption

I know that eating out with kids is expensive, (did I really just pay for my kid to grind beans into a paste on the tabletop?) exhausting (see aforementioned bean paste) and sometimes embarrassing (apologizing to the host for the 25 sugar packets that are now opened and littered across the table).

However, I believe that Chattanooga is one of the most kid-friendly cities I have ever had the pleasure of living in. One of our reporters compiled a fantastic list of family-friendly establishments, and I would like to add to that list based on a few other variables.
