second that. We eat roughly half a dish and switch plates. I've seen the Non Indian waiters looking at us in disgust.
Also we started to bring our children to good restaurants of different cuisines when they could sit through dinners. (Of course, no restaurants that explicitly say "no children".) We shared all the dishes. Well, it is more that we encourage our children to try our orders. They have developed very good tastes on foods and the appreciation on different cuisines. They both started ordering "adult" dishes at 9 years old. No more chicken tenders, mac and cheese, etc. It is really one of the best family time that we sit together and all enjoy trying local cuisines when travel aboard.
